DOWNLOAD EBOOKMaster storyteller A. C. Greene re-creates one of America's most bizarre holdups -- one that began as a lark. On Christmas Eve 1927, four men set off to rob the First National Bank of Cisco, Texas. Soon the lark turned into a tragedy -- and at times a comedy -- of errors. The robbers did not realize the car they had stolen for their get-away was running on empty. The leader did not anticipate the attention his disguise would draw, even though it was a bright red Santa Claus suit. And they could not have known that all of Cisco would have guns at hand because the Bankers Association had offered a reward of $5000 for any dead bank robber, no questions asked. The Santa Claus bank robbery set off a chain of events that would lead to violence and the death of six men and launch the largest manhunt Texas had ever seen. A. C. Greene's factual account of the unusual crime reads like a novel -- fast paced, full of unexpected turns, and rich with the flavor of life in Texas at the beginning of the end of the Old West. This new edition contains an Afterword with photographs, some of them never before published, and follow-up information on the lives of the participants, including the surviving robber, witnesses and kidnap victims.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSeventeen-year-old Matt Bowden is convinced that his uncle didn't commit suicide. Matt believes his favorite uncle's murder has something to do with the book he was writing about Southwest mines and treasures. Matt is determined to find out who killed Uncle Jonas and why. Matt returns to his uncle's house and searches for a clue. He copies all of his uncle's computer files on the new book he was writing and also finds a phone message from a man named Art Fogle, a university history professor. Matt soon learns that Fogle was killed in a hit-and-run accident, only hours before Matt found his murdered uncle. Just a coincidence, or is there a connection between Art Fogle's and Uncle Jonas' deaths? Matt asks the soon-to-retire homicide detective, John Pawlowski, for help. From his uncle's files, Matt learns that Uncle Jonas borrowed a valuable Spanish document--alluding to a fortune in gold and silver--from a Mrs. Garcia. Matt goes to see the Mexican woman and meets her granddaughter, Susan Martinez. With his uncle dead and the Spanish document missing, Matt agrees to help Susan find her grandmother's treasure document. The trail leads Matt and Susan to a man named Phil Simpson, a local authority on Southwest mines and treasures. After their visit, Simpson dies mysteriously, when his house burns down. Detective John Pawlowski is now convinced that all three deaths are tied to the missing Spanish document. All Matt, Susan and John have to do now is stay one step ahead of the killer and find the Spanish treasure before anyone else is murdered.
