Book Description
In 1879 Marcus Irons is the young deputy marshal of the small town of Madera Verde in Arizona Territory. He is deadly with a gun, expert with his fists, likes whiskey, poker, and women, and exudes a physically intimidating air of authority. Earlier, during the Civil War, an attack by Apaches forced a party of the subversive Knights of the Golden Circle to bury a strongbox of gold coins in the ruins of an ancient pueblo in northeast Arizona Territory. Beautiful Ophelia Grayson has just learned of the treasure, and she hires Irons to help her and her crew try to find it. Archibald Hardwick, the erudite editor of the local newspaper, joins the search, eager for a good story. It’s a three-day ride up the long, steep escarpment leading from the Verde Valley to the Colorado Plateau and its scattered ruins of pueblos, and they must traverse the challenging Mogollon [MO-gee-yon] Rim to get there. The journey and the search for the gold are beset by deadly threats and startling revelations. For that matter, can Charlie Number Two, the Navajo scouting for buffalo soldiers, even find the desired pueblo? Marcus Irons will be lucky to simply survive the quest!

Mist
Author: Miguel de Unamuno
Publisher: CONVIVIVM
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
Mist (Niebla) by Miguel de Unamuno is considered one of the greatest works of Spanish literature and is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, existentialism, and 20th century literature. In Mist, we follow the journey of a young man named Augusto Pérez who is struggling with questions of existence and identity. The narrative is written in a stream of consciousness style, allowing the reader to dive into the protagonist's inner thoughts and emotions. Through Augusto's experiences, the book explores themes of self-awareness, meaning, and purpose. One of the unique aspects of Niebla is its use of symbolism and allegory, adding layers of meaning to the story. The title itself, Mist, serves as an image to represent the confusion and uncertainty that Augusto faces in his quest for truth. Overall, Mist is a thought-provoking book that will leave a lasting impact on its readers. If you're looking for a book that challenges your perspective and stimulates your mind, Mist is definitely worth checking out.

Some People Need Killing

Languages : en
Pages : 449
Book Description
TIME’S #1 NONFICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR • A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW TOP 10 BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR “Patricia Evangelista’s searing account is not only the definitive chronicle of a reign of terror in the Philippines, but a warning to the rest of the world about the true dangers of despotism—its nightmarish consequences and its terrible human cost.”—Patrick Radden Keefe, New York Times bestselling author of Empire of Pain “Tragic, elegant, vital . . . Evangelista risked her life to tell this story.”—Tara Westover, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Educated “A journalistic masterpiece”—David Remnick, The New Yorker For six years, journalist Patricia Evangelista documented killings carried out by police and vigilantes in the name of then president Rodrigo Duterte’s war on drugs—a crusade that led to the slaughter of thousands—immersing herself in the world of killers and survivors and capturing the atmosphere of terror created when an elected president decides that some lives are worth less than others. The book takes its title from the words of a vigilante, which demonstrated the psychological accommodation many across the country had made: “I’m really not a bad guy,” he said. “I’m not all bad. Some people need killing.” A profound act of witness and a tour de force of literary journalism, Some People Need Killing is a brilliant dissection of the grammar of violence and an investigation into the human impulses to dominate and resist. WINNER OF THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY’S HELEN BERNSTEIN BOOK AWARD • FINALIST FOR THE CHAUTAUQUA PRIZE • LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN’S PRIZE AND THE MOORE PRIZE FOR HUMAN RIGHTS WRITING • A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Economist, Chicago Public Library, CrimeReads, The Mary Sue
