Going rogue to recover a stolen Army payroll, Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long rescues a kidnapped senorita only to be conned by this seductive siren who takes off with his money - and his heart.

Longarm sees action south of the border… As thunder booms and lightning flashes and wolves nuzzle the bloody, bullet-ridden corpses of Longarm’s fallen foes out in the wet, muddy streets of a Mexican ghost town, the lawman is warm and cozy inside—and happy to be alive, receiving a sweet reward for rescuing a kidnapped señorita. Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long has technically gone rogue—crossing the border into Mexico to recover a stolen Army payroll. He hadn’t planned on encountering hot-blooded hostage Claudia Cordova, but now he’s sure glad he saved her… Until he wakes up after a night of passion tied to the four posts of a bed—his seductive siren long gone, her saddlebags bulging with those “gringo greenbacks”…

For a lawman, life in Yuma Prison is a death sentence. Crooked town marshal Jeb Beeson has laid down the law—his law. If Longarm isn’t on the Monday train out of Yuma, his casket will be. But Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long isn’t about to be chased off by a bullying badge toter—he has a job to do. Former lawman Tom Ray has been falsely convicted of murder and left to rot in Yuma Territorial Prison, while the men who set him up steal his gold claim. When Ray’s beautiful daughter Jessica asks Longarm for help, the deputy marshal can’t say no. He’s not about to let a good lawman die in a bad prison—or let a bunch of dirty dogs get rich on a dead man’s claim.

The Rock History Reader is an eclectic compilation of readings that tells the history of rock as it has been received and explained as a social and musical practice throughout its six decade history. The readings range from the vivid autobiographical accounts of such rock icons as Ronnie Spector and David Lee Roth to the writings of noted rock critics like Lester Bangs and Chuck Klosterman. It also includes a variety of selections from media critics, musicologists, fanzine writers, legal experts, sociologists and prominent political figures. Many entries also deal specifically with distinctive styles such as Motown, punk, disco, grunge, rap and indie rock. Each entry includes headnotes, which place it in its historical context. This second edition includes new readings on the early years of rhythm & blues and rock ‘n’ roll, as well as entries on payola, mods, the rise of FM rock, progressive rock and the PMRC congressional hearings. In addition, there is a wealth of new material on the 2000s that explores such relatively recent developments as emo, mash ups, the explosion of internet culture and new media, and iconic figures like Radiohead and Lady Gaga. With numerous readings that delve into the often explosive issues surrounding censorship, copyright, race relations, feminism, youth subcultures, and the meaning of musical value, The Rock History Reader continues to appeal to scholars and students from a variety of disciplines.
