The lawman and his escaped prisoner are running neck and neck... His prisoner had help--but Longarm never saw who it was. The backshooter's bullet creased the nape of his neck, knocking him from his horse and rendering him unconscious. Eager to make his getaway, Alton Gray made a fatal error--he didn't take a moment to confirm that the lawman was dead. Now Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long is back on the trail of the runaway prisoner--and his ambushing accomplice. A corrupt town marshal and a wily woman of ill repute may lead him to the elusive escapee, but to finish the job he started, Longarm will have to stick his neck out one more time...

Longarm’s seeing double… The Olsen sisters are as beautiful as they are deadly. Hilda and Pearl were twin mistresses to Senator Taft Baker of Sacramento, California, but now the polygamous politician has been shot to death in his bed—and the sisters are nowhere to be found. Word is, they’ve fled to Denver, where it’s up to Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long to bring the diabolical duo to justice—on the double! While the sisters may be identical in appearance, they turn out to be as different as night and day when it comes to temperament. Evil twin Pearl aims to blast Longarm with both barrels, while Hilda is more interested in doubling his pleasure. This time the lawman will have to think twice before making his move—or the Olsen twins may just be the death of him…

During the American Civil War, the Union and the Confederacy both fielded units of sharpshooters. Sometimes equipped with firearms no better than those of their infantry brethren, they fought in a manner reminiscent of Napoleonic-era light infantry. Siege warfare placed a premium on marksmanship and the sharpshooter became indispensable as they could drive artillerymen from their guns. They could also become expert scouts and, for the Confederacy, impressive raiders – one raid netted almost 250 prisoners. Initially, Union marksmen enjoyed the upper hand, but as the Confederates began raising and training their own sharpshooters, they proved themselves as worthy opponents. In this study, Gary Yee, an expert in firearms of the period, assesses the role played by sharpshooters in three bloody clashes at the height of the American Civil War – the battle of Fredericksburg, the siege of Vicksburg, and the siege of Battery Wagner.

When Longarm goes for the gold, murder is all in the family! Just when Deputy Marshal Custis Long thought he’d finally be free to rustle up a few new conquests of the feminine persuasion, two distant cousins show up toting a far-fetched tale of treasure and murder. Longarm would like nothing better than to send these sisters packing back to the backwoods of West Virginia, but they won’t be deterred—even though there are a coupla cutthroats on their trail… Escorting the ladies on their hunt for the Picacho Peak gold turns out to be trickier than he thought—especially when they come across the body of Longarm’s mule-riding cousin Boris, who’d gone ahead of the girls to get the treasure. Now, Longarm must stop a gang of cold-blooded brothers before they take it upon themselves to murder more of his kin…
