Abigail Townsend longs for the type of excitement she reads about in her beloved books. She knows she won’t find anything remotely resembling an adventure at any of the stuffy events of the ton, so she sets out to find one of her own. Shane MacLeod is a man of many talents and titles. He’s a Highlander, a ship captain, and a member of the Knights Templar. When he sets out to sea bound for an important meeting of Templars, he realizes too late the lad his cook hired is a girl. And when that girl turns out to be an earl’s daughter, he soon adds “husband” to his list of titles. Forced into a temporary marriage with the bold and handsome Highlander, Abigail has no interest in remaining as virtuous as the honorable Shane would have her stay. But as Shane’s resolve weakens, an old family enemy seeks to destroy any happiness Shane might find with his new bride. Each book in the Rogue series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed in any order.

Guided only by the barrel of his pistol, former deputy marshal Gideon Hawk no longer abides by conventional laws. Known as the Rogue Lawman, he serves his own brand of justice by carving his way through the West, leaving fallen criminals in his wake… This time it’s Hawk who’s been tracked down. The same governors who had a death warrant on Hawk’s head now desperately need his help to end the bloody carnage sweeping the Southwest… A gang of merciless Apaches, along with their leader, a turncoat called Wilbur “Knife-Hand” Monjosa, are on the loose. Losing his hand to a Mojave axe, Monjosa replaced his bloody stump with a razor-sharp knife. He’s a savage who’ll cut down anything in his way… Knife-Hand can only be matched with the kind of ruthlessness that burns within the Rogue Lawman. Monjosa’s killer instinct is as sharp as his hand, but Hawk’s fighting with something mightier than anything in Knife-Hand’s artillery—a personal vendetta…

With characteristic lawlessness and connection to the common man, the figure of the rogue commanded the world of Irish fiction from 1660 to 1790. During this period of development for the Irish novel, this archetypal figure appears over and over again. Early Irish fiction combined the picaresque genre, focusing on a cunning, witty trickster or pícaro, with the escapades of real and notorious criminals. On the one hand, such rogue tales exemplified the English stereotypes of an unruly Ireland, but on the other, they also personified Irish patriotism. Existing between the dual publishing spheres of London and Dublin, the rogue narrative explored the complexities of Anglo-Irish relations. In this volume, Lines investigates why writers during the long eighteenth-century so often turned to the rogue narrative to discuss Ireland. Alongside recognized works of Irish fiction, such as those by William Chaigneau, Richard Head, and Charles Johnston, Lines presents lesser-known and even anonymous popular texts. With consideration for themes of conflict, migration, religion, and gender, Lines offers up a compelling connection between the rogues themselves, marked by persistence and adaptability, and the ever-popular rogue narrative in this early period of Irish writing.

Policing the Borders Within offers an in-depth, comprehensive exploration of the everyday working of inland border controls in Britain, informed by extensive empirical material viewed through the lens of wide-ranging interdisciplinary debates. In particular, this book examines afresh the relationship between policing, borders, and social order, in terms of migration policing. By charting this new landscape of everyday contemporary policing, this book's main goal is to advance understanding of novel forms of law enforcement in a global age. These new forms of collaboration direct attention to the way in which frontline enforcement agents, through their everyday work, not only enforce the border, but recreate it. As the book argues, the emphasis on borders and migration controls and the growing importance of it within inland policing is a symptom of the new demands and challenges facing the state in exercising authority in a fast-moving, interconnected world, and its attempt to offer a semblance of order. Such challenges result in practice of random, capricious, informal, and arbitrary operation of power, which relies on non-rational elements to solve policing problems. Through an ethnography of the worlds of police and immigration officers, this book dissects the ethical, political, legal, and social dilemmas, and explores the tensions and contradictions of maintaining order in a deeply unequal globalized world. The new impetus to police migration is an insightful entry point to understand law enforcement in a global age.
