Slocum makes a run for the border… When Slocum saves a pretty young Mexican girl from a brutal gang, it wouldn’t be right to leave her on her own. So the next thing he knows, he’s hightailing it to her hacienda with a bunch of serious pistoleros hot on his trail—and a pair of gunslinging bounty hunters not far behind. But cold-blooded killers have to take a number if they want a piece of Slocum. He’s got some business to settle with a certain Senorita—and some things take a little time to get right. His trackers might as well hold their horses—since Slocum’s got enough bullets for everybody…

Slocum gets caught up in a big-time heist in a small-time town… John Slocum and his pard have finally steered two thousand head of cattle from Abilene, Texas, to their Kansas home. After six weeks on the trail, both men are itchin’ for some company of the female kind. Abigail Stanley fits the bill any which way you look at her—and, in addition to her comely figure and come-hither glances, she has a head for business. Slocum’s all too willing to learn some of the tricks of her trade—but getting involved with Miss Stanley means getting wrapped up in something much less pleasant than her lovin’ arms. She has it in her noggin that a big-time railway to her hometown of No Consequence, Nebraska, would translate into untold fortune for the so far unfortunate village. So, anxious to set things a-rolling, the townspeople willingly dish out their money for this joint venture with a Mr. Rafe Ferguson. Everything seems right as rain—until Slocum learns more than he should about the supposed benefactor of what is merely an imaginary Platte & Central Plains Railroad…

Longarm’s caught between a rock and a hard place! U.S. Deputy Marshal Custis Long is dispatched to the Pass of the North—the American-Mexican border-city of northern El Paso and southern Del Norte—to extradite a prisoner from Mexico. The Federalés however, are being none too cooperative, leaving Longarm to bide his time on the American side of the city until his charge is released. Unfortunately, he learns he’s made some enemies when some polecats use him for target practice. To find out who wants him dead and why, Longarm’s got to ask questions on both sides of the border—and both sides of the law…

If Slocum doesn’t skidaddle, he’ll be horsemeat! If his Appaloosa hadn’t twisted its ankle on the way to Springfield, Missouri, Slocum might never have looked into buying a new horse there. He might also have missed meeting two of the prettiest cowhands ever to walk on God’s green earth. And now, he might not be running for his life… In Springfield, a man looking to buy a horse has two choices: he can go see the Tolliver brothers’ costly horses, or he can look at Linda Collins’s cheaper ones—and risk getting pumped full of lead by the Tollivers’ hired hands. So when Slocum, a stranger to the town and its rules, shows up on the wrong side of the fence, he’ll have to use his horse sense to protect the very grateful Collins sisters, not to mention stay alive himself…

When two Irish brothers roll into Carson City, Slocum knows his fat-cat days with the lovely Carmella and her brothel are over--at least for a while. Carmella persuades Slocum to help Tip and Pat Carnahan find their father, who they believe is in mortal danger. But when they find out what kind of man their father really is, preserving his life becomes the last thing on their minds.

Wanted dead or alive for a murder he did not commit, Slocum flees a band of bounty hunters looking for a reward, while trying to round up a gang of mysterious cattle thieves in Texas.

When a storm forces Clint Adams to stop in the remote town of Random, Oklahoma, the only things he wants is food and a good night's rest--and a fast exit come sunup. But Random has a big problem with a one-man bank, mayor, and overlord all rolled up in one nasty package. But the Gunsmith is about to tip the balance of power--one bullet at a time. (July)
