Longarm GIANT novels…the biggest and best in Western adventure! U.S. Marshal Custis Long and Royal Canadian Mountie Sergeant Foster are crossing jurisdictions trying to find the hidden town of Natova—a secret spot where outlaws with lots of money can indulge their wicked ways while spending their money, and stay out of the law’s way when things heat up. Longarm and Forster will have to pull a notorious robbery to establish themselves as wanted men, while spending their money in the mining camps to attract attention and an “invite” to Natova. Then they can let the cavalry clean up the town—if they don’t get themselves killed along the way. But first, they’ll have to raise a potful of outlaw cash while staying ahead of the meanest vigilante committee anybody ever ran from…

Book Description
Longarm GIANT novels…the biggest and best in Western adventure! U.S. Marshal Custis Long realizes better than anyone how the newspapers play with the truth. He knows for a fact that Clay Allison’s surly hide was laid under the sod for good. But he can’t prove it. Never exactly an outlaw, Allison was inclined to kill people when he drank—and he drank a lot. But now, tales of Clay Allison keep coming along the news wire out of Texas. Someone who looks, talks, dresses—and kills—like the late shootist is on a murder spree. Longarm can’t believe that a homicidal drunk has come blazing back to life from out of the grave. But he has to look into it—especially since a Texas Ranger has been gunned down. If it turns out that he was wrong about Allison’s demise, Longarm will admit it—and then correct his mistake.

Book Description
PURA BELPRÉ HONOR BOOK ALA NOTABLE BOOK “An important, must-have addition to the growing body of literature with immigrant themes.” —School Library Journal (starred review) Twelve-year-old Jaime makes the treacherous and life-changing journey from his home in Guatemala to live with his older brother in the United States in this “powerful and timely” (Booklist, starred review) middle grade novel. Jaime is sitting on his bed drawing when he hears a scream. Instantly, he knows: Miguel, his cousin and best friend, is dead. Everyone in Jaime’s small town in Guatemala knows someone who has been killed by the Alphas, a powerful gang that’s known for violence and drug trafficking. Anyone who refuses to work for them is hurt or killed—like Miguel. With Miguel gone, Jaime fears that he is next. There’s only one choice: accompanied by his cousin Ángela, Jaime must flee his home to live with his older brother in New Mexico. Inspired by true events, The Only Road is an individual story of a boy who feels that leaving his home and risking everything is his only chance for a better life. The story is “told with heartbreaking honesty,” Booklist raved, and “will bring readers face to face with the harsh realities immigrants go through in the hope of finding a better, safer life, and it will likely cause them to reflect on what it means to be human.”
