"* "Matt Braun is a master story teller of frontier history." - Elmer Kelton"

"Judas Tree": Virginia City, Montana is a ramshackle town where fifty-six men have been killed, dozens of stagecoaches have been robbed, and a fanatical vigilante leader is threatening to blow the town sky-high. Luke Starbuck has been hired to put an end to the epidemic. Instead, the West's most legendary detective finds himself in the dead-centre of a murder mystery involving a beautiful young woman, a tough sheriff who takes no prisoners, and a killer who's still on the loose."The Last Stand": It is the land of Five Civilized Tribes, stolen from its people by a Federal government determined to make Oklahoma the 46th state. Chitto Starr, a full-blood Cherokee, will not go gently into the night. Now it's up to Deputy U.S. Marshal Owen McLain to hunt down Starr and his rebels, and bring justice to this tragic, history-scarred land...or die trying.
