    One night a deadly fire almost kills my best friend and squad mate, Corey. A fire I know is the result of arson. 
     
     
     
    As the squad investigator, it's my responsibility to get to the bottom of what happened that night. When the leading investigator at headquarters shows himself useless, I resort to working with Jocelyn, Corey's twin sister.

    "Jeston Nash knew horses -- he'd stolen enough of them in his time. But the lookalike cousin of Jesse James was going respectable, almost. Then, in a New Orleans teeming with drunks and blue uniforms, he sold a horse toa well-bred lady. It was the biggest mistake of his careers. 
     
    He hit Fort Lincoln with a belly full of wounds and minus a boot. His horse had been stolen, and he'd stolen it back -- along with some bootleg crackers. All in all, it hadn't been a pleasant trip through the dreaded Black Hills. But at least Jeston Nash -- for the time being calling himself Beatty -- hadn't drowned. Now he fully intended to fulÞll a promise: to deliver an unridable horse called Honest Bob to a woman named Custer. 
     
    The trouble was, the wife of General George Armstrong Custer, Elizabeth, wasn't very interested in the horse she'd persuaded Nash to deliver. In fact, Mrs. Custer was on the warpath. So were the Sioux -- and General Custer's commanders in Washington. Suddenly, Nash Þnds himself in the middle of the most dangerous kind of Þght: a marital squabble. Before he knows it he's riding alongside a hardheaded, buffalo-hunting, blond-haired general who's sure glory awaits them -- at a place called Little Big Horns.

    The Town Traveller explores the restless search for meaning and belonging in late Victorian England. The story centers on Julian Castell, a disillusioned Londoner who abandons his conventional life in pursuit of freedom and self-discovery. Leaving behind his job and social expectations, he embarks on a journey through rural England, reflecting on human nature, loneliness, and the constraints of modern society. Along the way, he encounters a cast of wanderers and dreamers, each offering glimpses into different ways of living. Gissing weaves a contemplative narrative that critiques urban alienation and romantic idealism while delving into the complexities of personal identity. With lyrical prose and philosophical depth, the novel questions whether true fulfillment lies in movement or rootedness, dreams or reality, solitude or connection.
