The Crow and The Coyote In Arizona Territory, Hannah Dobbin travels through Cañon de Chelly, home to the Navajo, in search of a sorcerer who murdered her pa. Bounty hunter Jack Boggs—known as The Crow—is on the trail of a vile Mexican bandito, but with the shadows of Hallowtide descending, more dark magic is at hand than either of them know. The Crow and The Bear Hunting an outlaw, bounty hunter Callum Boggs—sometimes called The Crow—arrives in the mining town of Silverton on a cold October day.

When none of the local men come to her aid, she must accept a newly arrived stranger as her only ally. Venturing into the mountains to track her father, she can hear more than the whispers of man. The mines carry spirits, and her only hope in navigating the living and the dead lies with The Crow. A Murder of Crows Bounty hunter Kester “Kit” Boggs, known as The Crow, is tracking a demon who feeds on the blood of children. Eliza McCulloch is determined to reclaim her family book of spells. The same man holds the key to both. As Kit and Eliza unearth far more than a stolen book, they must work together if they are to survive. But with the past pushing into their future, can they resist the growing desire between them?
