| "Deputy at Wild Card" by Margaret Scariano |
All he ever wanted to be was a librarian, but suddenly, through a series of unexpected events, Lance is forced to serve as deputy to the town of Wild Card. A dangerous prisoner escapes, and Lance is determined to "bring him back alive," using his wits instead of weapons. Eccentric Aunt Charlotte and Jamie, the town blacksmith, add to the color and action of the story.

According to the title page, this is a "PERSPECTIVES BOOK," published by Academic Therapy Publications in Novato, California. So... that sounds... fun?
Table of Contents:
1) First Look at Wild Card
2) Deputy or Cook?
3) Wanted: a Library in Wild Card
4) Clelland Tries Again
5) The Coffee Break
6) The Plan
7) Tricked, Trapped, and Wised-Up

I think there should be a band named "Aunt Charlotte's Trick," and their first album could be called, "Tricked, Trapped, and Wised-Up."
