Synopses:
Callaghen - Callaghen’s business is soldiering. For twenty years he’s fought all over the world from China to California, now he’s a private in the U.S. cavalry, poorly paid, his enlistment about to run out. He’s ready to move on. Until he saves the lives of his patrol in a brutal encounter in the harsh Mohave Desert and comes across a startling discovery: a treasure map belonging to a dead lieutenant who may not have been all he seemed. The map points the way to an underground river of gold, or does it? To find out, Callaghen will have to fight the toughest war of his life: against a fierce Indian warrior, a vindictive commanding officer, and a ruthless gang of outlaws who’ll turn what may be a river of gold into a river of blood.
Proving - They tried to tell him that his father had killed himself, but Kearney McRaven knew better. No matter what life had dealt him, his father would go down fighting. Kearney knew someone was lying to him. As he delved deeper into the mystery, he learned that just before his father died, the elder McRaven had experiences a remarkable run of luck. He’s won nearly ten thousand dollars and the deed to a cattle ranch. Not yet eighteen, Kearney was determined enough to track down his father’s murdered and claim what was rightfully his. Now, followed every step of the way by a shadowy figure, Kearney must solve the mystery of his father’s hidden past, a past that conceals a cold-blooded killer who’ll stop at nothing to keep a chilling secret.
Kid - Joe Harbin hadn’t killed a man for a fortune in gold just to sit in prison and let Rodelo find it. But when he and his men break out and head for the stash, they end up with a pair of unwelcome partners, Rodelo, and a beautiful woman with a hidden past. To get fifty thousand dollars in gold across fifty miles of desert, the desperate band quickly learns how much they’ll need each other, and how deep their greed and suspicion can run. At the end of the journey lie the waters of the Gulf and a new life in Mexico, but first they have to survive the savage heat, the bounty-hunting Yaqui Indians, and the shifting, treacherous nature of both the desert sands and the loyalties among them.
