The Isaac Bell books aren't released in chronological order. "The Assassin" takes place in 1905. "The Chase", which is the book depicting him meeting Marion, takes place in 1906.

Same question I had, and the reason I found this community. This is my favorite Cussler series (along with the Oregon books) and I look forward to each new release. I found this book and knew I hadn't read it, however what happened to the characters I knew? I guess I'll have to track the chronology myself to limit the confusion when I start a new one. Thanks for the help!

I'm glad someone else noticed to, I thought I was losing it. I was scratching my head, wondering why Marion was totally ignored. It doesn't mention Texas Walt being in the movies either. I must have checked a half-dozen times that this was the next book in the series, because I just finished Bootlegger.

At the very end in the epilogue, it addresses that issue of Marion.
