Paul Bunyan (1925) is a novel by James Stevens. Written from a lifetime of experience as a logger and historian of the logging industry, Paul Bunyan is a masterful take on one of the defining legends of the Pacific Northwest. Combining his own stories with those he heard at logging camps as a young boy, Stevens earned a reputation as a leading folklorist of his time whose novels and songs continue to resonate decades after his death. “He could whip his weight in wildcats, could pull clouds out of the sky, or chew up stones, or tell the whole world anything!” Larger than life, Paul Bunyan is a logger whose legend began with the Papineau Rebellion of 1837. As a defender of young Queen Victoria’s right to the forests of Canada, Bunyan fought fiercely against French loggers alongside his comrades armed with mattocks, axes, and hooks. Emerging victorious, he settles down to a life in nature, building his logging camp and roaming the woods with his trusted blue ox Babe. From his boyhood in the lumber camps of Idaho to his time as a logger in Oregon, James Stevens collected the tales of Bunyan from the more experienced men of the woods, eventually becoming the foremost expert on one of the Pacific Northwest’s greatest heroes. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of James Stevens’ Paul Bunyan is a classic work of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

A week into their honeymoon, DCI Lucas Jericho and his partner, Ryder Winters are hauled back into work. Arriving at the scene of the crime, Lucas is confronted with something that mirrors Dante's Inferno. Moments into the investigation, he is hit by a disturbing coincidence. The church is a mere ten-minute drive from where, exactly a week ago to the day, he and Ryder tied the knot. A fortnight later, the body of a teenage girl is discovered on a pavement in the heart of London. Her throat had been cut and her clothes hiked over her waist to allow the extent of her horrific injuries full exposure. Struck by a sense of d j vu, Lucas realises there is something oddly familiar about the set-up. Over the course of the next six weeks, the monster strikes several more times. With each kill, the mutilations become ever more inventive, ever more gruesome. In each instance the killer leaves a single clue, a series of letters and digits tattooed into the inside of the girls' lips. At first glance they appear to be nothing but a meaningless jumble. Lucas knows better. Both the tattoos and wound patters are meant to convey a message. One he is meant to decipher. The further into the investigation he delves, the more Lucas becomes convinced the murders have echoes in the past. As the case unfolds, his theory turns out to be eerily prophetic. A dark and compelling mystery thriller. The author's insight into the minds of serial killers is uncanny.
