""The Land of Sinim: Or China and Chinese Missions"" is a comprehensive account of the history, culture, and religion of China, as well as the Christian missionary movement in the country.

Robert Logan enters an El Paso courtroom fully expecting that nothing would change in his life. He would remain alive, an attorney and romantically uninvolved, but only two of those things would be true at the close of the day because life is funny that way.In testimony before an El Paso Grand Jury, Logan learns of the exploits of two Texas Rangers who pursued a vicious pair of murderers across the windswept deserts of West Texas, the mountains of New Mexico, the sandy beaches of old Mexico, and the lush Caribbean nation of Costa Rica only to have the tale collude in a fiery ending on a ranch in West Texas.West Texas is replete with an intrigue that includes courtroom drama, criminal conspiracies, troubled love interests, and flawed heroes that make it a saga in the best traditions of both The Searchers and The Day of the Evil Gun.
