Raw Land
by Luke ShortA hard-riding adventurer returns home to settle down—and stirs up a heap of trouble—in this action-packed western from a master of the genre. After ten years of hard fighting and harder living, Will Danning is coming home to Yellow Jacket. His arrival is anything but celebrated, however—the last time he cast a shadow here, he wasn&’t exactly walking the straight and narrow. Danning has returned to buy the Pitchfork Ranch, where he used to work cattle that weren&’t always legally his. For his neighbors, that&’s cause for concern; Angus Case still remembers when his herds were ravaged. What&’s more, Danning&’s friends can&’t understand why he&’d want such a dried-up parcel of land. And Pres Milo, Case&’s chief ramrod and enforcer, wants the land for himself—and will do anything to get it. If Danning wants to keep what&’s his, he&’ll have to fight. And in a frontier town like Yellow Jacket, fighting often means dying . . . A legend of western fiction, Luke Short blazed the trail for writers such as Louis L&’Amour and Elmore Leonard. Raw Land is one of his grittiest and most authentic tales of frontier adventure.
Rawhide (Stagecoach Station # #30)
by Hank MitchumAt Fort Bowie, the troops under the command of Col. Brett Johnston were poised for an all-out war with Cochise's Apache band, and the entire territory awaited the bloody confrontation. It was a perfect situation for outlaws and Indian-hating white men to exploit for their own ruthless purposes. Bank robber and murderer Red Stoker, for one, saw his chance to hit the Butterfield stage that carried a rich payroll. And a jealous lieutenant who coveted Col. Johnston's adopted daughter was another who would go to any lengths--however violent--to get what he wanted. But neither man counted on the honor and bravery of a young man who had everything to lose in a bitter war that would profit others. He was Brondo, the third son of Cochise. Once before he had snatched the colonel's daughter from the jaws of death--and now he vowed he would save her and his own people from utter destruction, with little thought to his own life.

Raylan
by Elmore LeonardThe revered New York Times bestselling author, recognized as "America's greatest crime writer" (Newsweek), brings back U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, the mesmerizing hero of Pronto, Riding the Rap, and the hit FX series Justified. With the closing of the Harlan County, Kentucky, coal mines, marijuana has become the biggest cash crop in the state. A hundred pounds of it can gross $300,000, but that's chump change compared to the quarter million a human body can get you-especially when it's sold off piece by piece. So when Dickie and Coover Crowe, dope-dealing brothers known for sampling their own supply, decide to branch out into the body business, it's up to U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens to stop them. But Raylan isn't your average marshal; he's the laconic, Stetson-wearing, fast-drawing lawman who juggles dozens of cases at a time and always shoots to kill. But by the time Raylan finds out who's making the cuts, he's lying naked in a bathtub, with Layla, the cool transplant nurse, about to go for his kidneys. The bad guys are mostly gals this time around: Layla, the nurse who collects kidneys and sells them for ten grand a piece; Carol Conlan, a hard-charging coal-mine executive not above ordering a cohort to shoot point-blank a man who's standing in her way; and Jackie Nevada, a beautiful sometime college student who can outplay anyone at the poker table and who suddenly finds herself being tracked by a handsome U.S. marshal. Dark and droll, Raylan is pure Elmore Leonard-a page-turner filled with the sparkling dialogue and sly suspense that are the hallmarks of this modern master.

Rebel Spurs (The Drew Rennie Series #2)
by Andre NortonAfter suffering defeat in the Civil War, a young man struggles to establish his identity and begin life anew in a raw and unsettled land. In 1866, only men uprooted by war had reason to ride into Tubacca, Arizona, a nondescript town as shattered and anonymous as the veterans drifting through it. So when Drew Rennie, newly discharged from Forrest&’s Confederate scouts, arrived, leaving everything he owned behind, he knew his business would not be questioned. To anyone in Tubacca there could only be one extraordinary thing about Drew, and that he could not reveal: his family name. Drew has come west from Kentucky to find a father he had thought dead until the year before. However, kinship with a man like Hunt Rennie—the legendary Don Cazar, owner of a matchless range and prize stallions—is not a claim to be made quickly or lightly. Posing as Drew Kirby, the young veteran contrives to get himself and his friend Anse hired as corral hands at Rennie&’s Range, but he is hardly prepared for the suspicion and danger that stands between him and his father. As hotheaded as the elder Rennie, Drew is ready to move on to California—until the day all proof of his name is stolen from him, and his unwarranted arrest for horse-thieving spurs the accusations of the one man whose trust he really needs. Andre Norton&’s Ride Proud, Rebel! dramatically portrayed the last year of the Confederacy, when brave men met defeat with honor. In this sequel, Drew&’s struggle to start over out west reflects the courage of thousands of rootless men set adrift by the Civil War.
