As spring wildflowers bloom in the American midwest in 1917, Lorraine McQuarrie envisions those same flowers rising from the trenches in war-torn France. Ever a fearless young woman, Lorraine knows the Great War is coming for her nation and her loved ones. She would brandish a helmet and uniform if she could; anything to save her youngest brother from the fate of a German rifle.

It’s not until General John Pershing calls upon women to join the war effort that Lorraine finds her opportunity. For the first time, American women will join their husbands, sons, and brothers at the front lines. With the skills needed and a heart for adventure, Lorraine joins the U.S. Army Signal Corps and begins her journey as a Hello Girl.

Fighting against her sister's disapproval and a rigorous training program, Lorraine is determined to make it to France and discover her purpose in the process. Despite the evils of war, she finds that there is much more to life, love, and sisterhood than her homestead on the Kansas prairie raised her to believe.

You’re never too old to fight for justice in the latest novel in the trailblazing series from legendary national bestselling Western authors William W. Johnstone and J.A. Johnstone. JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. AGED TO PERFECTION. Texas good-old-boys Doolin and Tubbs take on a pair of copy-cat outlaws—and prove they’re not getting older, they’re getting deadlier—in their latest, greatest adventure . . . Some say the Wild West is no country for old men. But apparently no one told Eli Doolin and Casey Tubbs. This rowdy pair of cowboys may be a bit long in the tooth but—thanks to the success of their new business venture, the D&T Cattle Company—they’re riding high in the saddle. And raking in the cash. What’s their secret? They rob banks. Disguised as even older men than they are, Doolin and Tubbs have managed to pull off a string of bank jobs without a hitch, making just a few withdrawals to help fund their ranch. But their lucrative sideline as undercover criminals takes a sudden dark turn when a pair of dangerous outlaws start committing similar robberies—dressed up as old men just like Doolin and Tubbs. Even worse, these copy-cat crooks are cutthroat killers. To stop these bad guys from smearing their good names, Doolin and Tubbs have to do the unthinkable: Team up with Marshal Colton Gray before they get wrongfully jailed—or kill their own doubles before their doubles kill them . . .
