Book 1-The Dark Wind Howls Over Mary -Sheriff Stringbean Hooper's job description for sheriff is relaxing while he watches the town out his office window. He leans back in his chair with his feet on his desk and takes it easy. All that changes when the town doctor, Doc Strummer, reports his wife has disappeared. Hooper finds himself in the middle of a crime and a family feud between cattle baron, Mac Sullivan, and the cattle baron's son-in-law, Dr. Strummer. Hooper's only backups are a nervous pig farmer that works as his part time deputy, and a gun toting woman rancher who has her sights set on marrying him. Having them for backup doesn't stop someone from ambushing Stringbean after an evening at the woman rancher's house. The only woman he can trust is the laundry woman on the edge of Sully Town, Montana. She will take the bullet out of him and get him back on his feet. Hooper finds himself fighting for his life and his bachelorhood while he solves the mysterious disappearance of Mary Alice Strummer.Book 2 Small Feet's Many Moon Journey-Stringbean Hooper and his wife, Theo, think a journey across country will be their honeymoon. They have no idea what they are getting themselves into. Stringbean gets them lost in Indian territory and upsets the Indians. The couple escape a flood, a mad bear, spend the night in a run down cabin with a woman crazy with prairie fever and more. Through it all, Stringbean meets the challenges with his usual sense of humor, but he notices as the journey drags on that Theo is getting crankier by the minute. He sure hopes she lightens up by the time they get to her brother's wedding in San Jose. It didn't help him any to have warning advice freely handed out to Theo, known as Small Feet, by the Indian shaman, Matilda Vinci. The old woman warned Theo to be careful while traveling with Stringbean who the Sioux named Walking Dead. Matilda said he might get Theo killed.
