Friday, September 6, 2013: Margaret Coel will be reading from and signing her latest novel at 7:30 pm at our Colfax Avenue Store.
In her pulse-pounding mysteries, New York Times bestselling
author Margaret Coel interweaves authentic Native American culture and
history with modern-day suspense. In the latest Wind River novel,
Arapaho attorney Vicky Holden and Father John O’Malley are caught
between two cultures that won’t let go of the past—and a killer who
won’t leave any witnesses…
The whole town of Lander has turned out for the big parade celebrating the start of the new rodeo season. The main spectacle this year is the appearance of Colonel Edward Garrett—a spot-on impersonator of General George Armstrong Custer—and a troop of men acting as the ill-fated Seventh Cavalry.
The problem is they are being followed by a group of Arapaho warriors from the Wind River Reservation, who proceed to encircle Garrett and his men in a “dare ride” just to remind them exactly who won the Battle of the Little Bighorn. But when the ride is over, history seems to have repeated itself: Garrett is dead in the street with a bullet hole in his chest.
No one is sure what happened, but public sentiment quickly turns against the Arapaho—and the prime suspect is Colin Morningside, a descendant of Crazy Horse. When a local attorney connected to Morningside disappears, the accusations only grow stronger.
Father John O’Malley knows in his heart the Arapaho are not guilty. And Vicky Holden finds herself professionally and personally compromised from getting involved. But what begins as a murder soon reveals itself as a conspiracy that neither Father John nor Vicky could have foreseen. And someone wants to ensure that the truth they discover will die with them…
Saturday, September 7, 2013: Lauren Myracle will be reading from and signing her latest novel for teen readers at 7:00 pm at our Highlands Ranch store.
For as long as she can remember, Wren Gray's goal has been to please her
parents. But as high school graduation nears, so does an uncomfortable
realization: Pleasing her parents once overlapped with pleasing herself,
but now . . . not so much. Wren needs to honor her own desires, but how
can she if she doesn't even know what they are?
Charlie Parker, on the other hand, is painfully aware of his heart's desire. A gentle boy with a troubled past, Charlie has loved Wren since the day he first saw her. But a girl like Wren would never fall for a guy like Charlie--at least not the sort of guy Charlie believes himself to be.
And yet certain things are written in the stars. And in the summer after high school, Wren and Charlie's souls will collide. But souls are complicated, as are the bodies that house them . . .
Sexy, romantic, and oh-so-true to life, this is an unforgettable look at first love from one of young adult fiction's greatest writers.
