Longarm’s got his eyes on justice, and his hands on the Defense! As a US Deputy Marshal, Custis Long has gone after more than his fare share of trouble. But when trouble runs right into him—wearing a blood-stained night gown no less—he knows he’ll be in for quite a ride. It seems the wealthy silver mine owner Jericho Malone has just been stabbed to death in his own home, and his blood is on the night gown of his young, attractive second wife Estelle. Malone’s daughter always suspected that Estelle would sink to any level to get at their father’s money, and there’s an eye witness who swears he found her lying on the body, clutching the impaled knife in her hands. So when her defense lawyer up and collapses on the court room floor, it looks like then end of the line for Mrs. Malone. But with Longarm’s particular talent for persuading the fairer sex, Mrs. Malone has another lawyer in no time—a real fine darling of defense—and Longarm is there to make sure justice is served.

A sexy songbird flies the coop. With her heavenly voice, chanteuse Miss Claire has just about every man in Denver wrapped around her little finger, but she needs a man like U.S. Marshal Custis Long to keep her alive. Notes of the not-so-musical kind have been sent to her from someone who wants to shut her up—for good… Besides the thousand dollars if he catches the rascal, Longarm is promised some fringe benefits from Miss Claire herself. But Longarm is left singing the blues when the star stages her own murder—and disappears…

This time Longarm’s really in deep… They’ve kept the Santa Fe Railroad off track with three holdups. They’ve sent the marshal of Flagstaff, Arizona, to a higher justice with a well-placed bullet. They’ve pulled the wool over the eyes of the Navajo by rustling their sheep. They’re the Grand Canyon Gang, and they’re lower than a rattlesnake sunbathing at the bottom of their namesake. It’s Deputy Marshal Custis Long’s duty to bring these cutthroats to justice. But after encountering a jewel named Emerald Alexander, he’s been cursed with a string of bad luck that includes being robbed, conned, and wrongly imprisoned. Now that his temper has been riled, Longarm is going to give this gang a tour of the Canyon they’ll never forget…

To protect a woman in danger, Longarm has to smoke out an opium fiend… Deputy Marshal Link St. Clair is missing in action. Last seen hot on the trail of train robbers outside of Cheyenne, the lost lawman hasn't been heard from since—and now it's the job of Deputy Marshal Custis Long to find the fed. But Longarm is disturbed by an odd coincidence—a beautiful young widow he saved on the streets of Denver has also disappeared without a trace. Her last name? St. Clair. Once Longarm arrives in Cheyenne to unravel the mystery, he encounters a twisted trail of bloody murder, opium addiction, deadly deceit, and hidden gold. It turns out neither Lilly or Link St. Clair are what they appear. Only one thing is certain—both of them are far from saints…
