Together We Win: Book Three of the Detectiving Series

by Russell Moran

Book cover

Detectives First Grade with the NYPD, Bobbie Nelson and Bob Lawton are husband and wife, professional partners, and lovers. Bobbie often says that they're also best friends. Bobbie was hired away from the Chicago Police Department and they were partnered, causing Bobbie to say, "I'm the luckiest cop in the world."

Bobbie is shot and seriously wounded with a non-life-threatening brain injury, the most trying event either of them had ever faced. She fully recovers and she and Bob continue their work as the greatest detectives in the country.

Their friend and boss, NYPD Commissioner Ralph Norquist, nicknamed them the BBs. The New York Times dubs them "New York's Dynamic Detective Duo." They embark on some of the toughest assignments in the NYPD, including bombings of NYC subway trains, terrorist drone attacks on football stadiums, a fraud ring that zeroes on elderly people's bank accounts, a child kidnapping plot, and a serial killer who specialized in murdering young couples.

Commissioner Norquist never hesitates to assign the most difficult cases in the department to the BBs. He even refers to them as NYPD Royalty.

Tombstone

by Tom Clavin

Book cover

On the afternoon of October 26, 1881, eight men clashed in what would be known as the most famous shootout in American frontier history. Thirty bullets were exchanged in 30 seconds, killing three men and wounding three others.

The fight sprang forth from a tense, hot summer. Cattle rustlers had been terrorizing the back country of Mexico and selling the livestock they stole to corrupt ranchers. The Mexican government built forts along the border to try to thwart American outlaws, while Arizona citizens became increasingly agitated. Rustlers, who became known as the cow-boys, began to kill each other as well as innocent citizens. That October, tensions boiled over with Ike and Billy Clanton, Tom and Frank McLaury, and Billy Claiborne confronting the Tombstone marshal, Virgil Earp, and the suddenly deputized Wyatt and Morgan Earp and shotgun-toting Doc Holliday.

Best-selling author Tom Clavin peers behind decades of legend surrounding the story of Tombstone to reveal the true story of the drama and violence that made it famous. Tombstone also digs deep into the vendetta ride that followed the tragic gunfight, when Wyatt and Warren Earp and Holliday went vigilante to track down the likes of Johnny Ringo, Curly Bill Brocius, and other cowboys who had cowardly gunned down his brothers. That "vendetta ride" would make the myth of Wyatt Earp complete and punctuate the struggle for power in the American frontier's last boom town.
