The Sisters Brothers
Hermann Kermit Warm is going to die. The enigmatic and powerful man known only as the Commodore has ordered it, and his henchmen, Eli and Charlie Sisters, will make sure of it. Though Eli doesn't share his brother's appetite for whiskey and killing, he's never known anything else. But their prey isn't an easy mark, and on the road from Oregon City to Warm's gold-mining claim outside Sacramento, Eli begins to question what he does for a living–and whom he does it for.

And in twin brothers Ramon and Inocente--both in love with Ana--she finds a way to get there: she marries Ramon and convinces the brothers that their destiny is in the remote sugar plantation they've inherited on the island.
A confirmed bachelor at the age of thirty-nine, Trevor Wilkins has everything he needs or desires—a lavish lifestyle with only himself to answer to, easy money at his disposal and an exciting life racing the Wilkins family horses.
