Sadie Weinstein runs a mom-and-pop grocery in Brooklyn in 1969 with her husband, Nathan. A quirky amateur detective, she persists in solving a murder that takes place when she is present at a home in Staten Island. The murdered victim is a bigamist who had two wives, and possibly more, in different far-removed locations. She tracks down suspects from Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey, and as far away as Biloxi, Mississippi. Sadie is a suspect herself and must solve the mystery to clear her name. Nathan warns her constantly not to stick her neck out, but she is undeterred. Her charming pickle-eating customer and psychic Rhajmah has revealing visions. The excitement mounts in Biloxi during the savage onslaught of Hurricane Camille. The story involves anguish, but Sadies antics and repartees lighten tension. This is a gripping Sadie Weinstein mystery, Luxenbergs fourth.

A bloodthirsty band of Indians wants Cuno dead in this .45-Caliber western from Peter Brandvold... Cuno Massey had always stayed on the good side of the law. But he’d never found himself stuck in the middle of a feud between a weary old rancher and a band of Indians hungry for revenge. With warring braves surrounding the ranch and a doomed man begging for help, Cuno’s the only rider left who stands a chance to save the rancher’s daughter from a savage massacre. Fighting arrows with bullets and tussling with grizzly bears, Cuno’s rescue ride is no pleasure trip. And when his wagon party comes up against a squad of mountain marshals looking to break some rules of their own, Cuno’s got to do what it takes to defend the girl—and himself. Even if it means defying the law and becoming a wanted man…

Written in a light, easy style Tuesday’s story of emotional emancipation is one that any teenager can appreciate. -Kirkus Reviews on Mistaken Identity A love story mixed with tragedy and humor.

THE OLDER MAN Jesse Wagner was ruggedly handsome, incredibly charming—and sixteen years her senior. But Caroline knew in her heart that what they had was the chance of a lifetime. And it looked like it was up to her to show the lonely rancher that some things were meant to be…. When Jesse took Caroline in his arms, his every instinct to protect her turned into a desire to claim her as his own. She brightened his solitary world and threw his sensibilities into a tailspin that he didn't think he could recover from. But how could a woman so vibrant and young possibly be thinking of him as husband material?
