In early 2003, three sheriffs set out to prove that Pat Garrett killed Billy the Kid, thereby also proving that Brushy Bill of Hico, Texas was not the real Kid. Along their way, the sheriffs enlisted New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson's support and took two communities on a wild ride through court battles to dig up Billy and his mother. Governor Richardson found an attorney willing to work free and provide Billy with a voice. Follow "Billy" as he speaks for himself in court, requesting that he and his mother be dug up to examine the DNA in their dusty remains for evidence that they were related. And follow the small towns of Fort Sumner and Silver City, New Mexico as they fight to retain the integrity of their municipal cemeteries and keep the legend of Billy the Kid from crumbling away. Author Jay Miller followed the strange unfolding of events, digging to find the source of the money that financed an official murder investigation and the court action against two courageous small towns struggling to prevent the exhumations.

He came because she sent for him. Little does Yancy Lawhorn realize that cousin Mary's letter would draw him into the jaws of a crosscut saw that is slicing up the country. The contest, over who should wind up owning late uncle Milt Groves' ranch and ample cattle resources to compete for lucrative government beef supply contracts, develops into a test of wills. On his first day in Silver City, Lawhorn is met by three rogues bent on flattening his nose. Fisticuffs escalate into gunfire, and when the smoke clears, all three ruffians have been sent to collect their reward. Within a few days, Lawhorn is ambushed on the trail, has his horse shot from beneath him and is wounded. Enduring great hunger, thirst, and painful travel, he walks and crawls back to town. The Groves' ranch note is called, and Mary is kidnapped. Is the Territorial Attorney General involved, along with Bart Garner? It appears so. Locating and rescuing Mary becomes an obsession that takes center stage in his mind, even over protecting the ranch or...himself.

She wore high heels and a .45 automatic, a tailored suit dress with a badge engraved SHERIFF pinned under the lapel. She had an explosive temper and a glare that could split rocks, and she had light eyes, pale eyes, the color of a glacier's heart -- just like her ancestor, her Great-Great-Grandfather, the second Sheriff of Firelands County, Colorado. When her husband found the Old Sheriff's personal journal in a hidden compartment of their roll top desk, Sheriff Willamina found a door through which she could step, a door that led to another world, another time. Follow the Sheriff from the Northern Ohio farm country through the war that tore the young nation apart, through dirty little coal mining towns and corrupt Kansas villages, aboard steam boat and a plow horse, until a final confrontation with a corrupt official shows Sheriff Willamina Keller that she is cut of the same violent, uncompromising cloth as her pioneering ancestor."
