Du Silence Armand

Sinossi

From One Sea to Another is a historical adventure novel set in the seventeenth century, in the heart of New France, between Europe and the North American continent still largely unexplored.Carlo, a young European forced to leave his homeland, is drawn into a new world of endless forests, boundless rivers, fragile colonies and unstable alliances. Around him move explorers, soldiers, settlers, missionaries, women marked by loss and men consumed by ambition. Every choice has a price; every journey leaves scars.Amid colonial wars, personal rivalries, difficult loves and silent betrayals, the story follows the slow yet inexorable transformation of its characters, compelled to grow older, to endure failure, to change. Nothing remains fixed: bodies break, loyalties shift, and survival becomes a form of resistance.This is not only the account of a geographical crossing, but the first chapter of a saga that explores human destiny through time, blood and land. A novel that combines historical rigour with narrative tension, where adventure is never separated from its consequences.

Derringer

William W. Johnstone, J. A....

On the Fourth of July in 1867, the Union Pacific Railroad announced plans to expand their line into the remote mountains of Dakota Territory. They chose a site near Crow Creek Crossing to be their headquarters and named it Cheyenne. Almost immediately, new residents began to arrive: dreamers and schemers, drifters and grifters, good folks and bad. The owners of Union Pacific knew there'd be problems. Between settling disputes, laying down tracks, and keeping the peace, they'd need a troubleshooter. A reliable man of steely resolve. A concealed weapon . . . 
 
 
 
His name is Derringer. Like the gun. 
 
 
 
Arriving by cattle car with two of his beloved horses, Jesse Derringer is not your typical railroad employee. With the eyes of a scout, he looks for trouble before it becomes a problem for the construction crews—and sometimes starts trouble himself. Usually he handles hot-tempered troublemakers with a cool head and steady hand. But then there are problems that are more complicated and it's Derringer's job to defuse them—before they ignite a full-blown bloodbath. 
 
 
 
Jesse Derringer is about to learn the true definition of trouble-shooting.
