Mid-October 1999, Jaclyn Ramsey escapes from a southern Arizona jail of Dos Caballos. Town Marshal John Buckner orders his inept deputy Gilbert Chávez hunt for her with instruction to return her to jail alive so no one will know of her escape. Jaclyn returns to the northern Arizona town of Upland to exact retribution on her beautiful double-crossing partner Sherri Denny, but only after she gets her hands on her share of their ill-gotten drug money. Jaclyn has also sworn vengeance by way of death against the Chief of Police of Upland. College student Rosie River, an excellent natural pool player, is also sent to Upland to locate Jaclyn and Sherri in case Chávez fails. Mayhem pursues as Upland police officers Nina Miller and Pike Tso try to solve a murder while the town is upended by a documentary of the pool playing legend JC Forkner.

First published in 2004. This 6 volume set focuses on the influential economic and political commentators who saw weaknesses in the infrastructure of the British Empire at the turn of the twentieth century. Dubbed Idealists of Empire, they saw that the British Empire seemed to have no governing principles, no structure and no guiding ideals. Sir John Seeley's famous quote of 1883 sums up this view: 'we seem to have conquered and peopled half the world in a fit of absence of mind'. The mission of the idealists was to find an Imperial solution to this problem. The idealists of Empire documented their findings as they looked more systematically at the Empire's external challenges and internal workings, in terms of politics, economics and strategy. The texts published in this collection represent their most important contributions to the early twentieth-century debate on the fate of the Empire. Volume 6 includes The Nation and the Empire (1913).
