Before you, a story of urban love, criminal genius, unbridled ambition and the ruthless pursuit of power, with a cast of characters one will not easily forget. Omar Grey, a child raised into a dope infested, impoverished environment, but determined by any means necessary to lift himself and his family from the muck and mire in which they live. Funky Slim, a Shakespearian, Edgar Allan Poe, Kipling quoting dope fiend, who would find in the fertile mind of young Omar a child with a rapacious appetite for learning and a near photographic mind. Mitch, Omar's uncle, the breadwinner in Omar's drug dealing family and the only father and role model he has ever known. Mary, the bi-racial beauty who at the tender age of fourteen, with the body of a woman, but the mind of a child, finds the easy money and allure of prostitution a temptation she cannot resist. Insightful social commentary, Machiavellian twist, heartbreaks and betrayal.... "Last of a Dying Breed" has it all.

“For sheer adventure L’Amour is in top form.”—Kirkus Reviews Here is the kind of authentically detailed epic novel that has become Louis L’Amour’s hallmark. It is the compelling story of U.S. Air Force Major Joe Mack, a man born out of time. When his experimental aircraft is forced down in Russia and he escapes a Soviet prison camp, he must call upon the ancient skills of his Indian forebears to survive the vast Siberian wilderness. Only one route lies open to Mack: the path of his ancestors, overland to the Bering Strait and across the sea to America. But in pursuit is a legendary tracker, the Yakut native Alekhin, who knows every square foot of the icy frontier—and who knows that to trap his quarry he must think like a Sioux.
