A Mat Sullivan and Sarah York story (10)
A pair of Texas Rangers try to break up a cattle rustling ring operating out of Mexico. That's just the beginning of their adventures. This is in homage to the Saturday afternoon B-Westerns that I saw as a child in the 1940s. You know--John Wayne and Tex Ritter.

This is the first of a series of stories that I am going to do based on various songs, mostly ones I suspect most readers have never heard.

Their marriages have been arranged, but not to each other. How will they cope?

Two anthropology graduate students accidentally trip a portal through time and wind up in ancient Egypt. Something about the portal does allow them to speak the local language. However, they still have to survive there without being killed as dangerous foreigners and have to find a way to make a living. Becoming Nanny to the pharaoh's favorite son was a good start. The male half of the duo worked as a bodyguard. Be warned: this story has only eight chapters.

This third and final book of the trilogy is set in the European Theater of World War Two and it covered the period of 1939 to 1945.

In a mid-1930s London suburb, as storm clouds rise over the growing militaristic resurgence in Germany, a window cleaner shows his young son the ropes of his business and reminisces in thoughts and conversations about the Great War.

Average Joe was damaged in the First World War, shot down for the third time unlucky, often quipping that losing a leg and an ear he was "less than average" and at 43 was a confirmed bachelor. Then he met heavily pregnant widow Anjelica, "call me Anjie", but Joe thought she was an angel. And she was until her first husband turned up Out of the blue like a bad penny. Unusually, this story starts at the End rather than the Beginning.
