Reilly's Bullet by Mack Owen ($11.99): The tale of a Dublin musician who, through forensic experimentation, develops a new feature to avoid police, detectives, and military from identifying the identity and location of a firearm, when used.

The Three Sentinels by Fred M. Civish Jr. ($14.95): Join young Jesse Basham in his amazing life on a journey starting from Missouri on the 1857 Francher wagon train headed for California. It all came to an end at Mountain Meadows, Utah, where the entire train was massacred. Left for dead, Jesse was nursed back to life by a clan of Paiute Indians. He was accepted into their tribe and renamed Mericat, since the Paiute language only had two words for white men. The first was Momen, for the Mormons who came into the land as settlers. The second was Mericats, for everyone else.
While the wonders of a historic wagon train trip along the Oregon trail and the life among the Paiute are a fascinating read, it is the deceit of those who did the attack and the causes for the massacre which makes this historical novel important.
