Dear Readers,
My latest novel, Trouble, is now available on Amazon. This is the third and final book (for now) in the Lockwood series. The novel, of course, focuses on Brady “Trouble” Yates, the young entrepreneur from The Accidental Sheriff and Beware a Pale Horse.
Samantha Morris again plays an important role in her difficult romance with Trouble, and most of the usual Lockwood, Wyoming residents make appearances. Grant Coolidge and Hannah Locke, now married with a new baby on the way, are active participants in a story plot that involves the destruction of Trouble’s lumber business as the result of a conspiracy between a would-be competitor and bureaucrats at the Interior Department. I think the reader will find enough action and more than a few surprises in this one.
Some of my characters in the Lockwood novels have been among the most popular among my readers. Rest assured that they will likely appear in future books and perhaps even be featured in a standalone novel. As my regular readers know, such appearances have become something of a trademark for my work.
On that note, I have had many inquiries about another Law Wranglers book. My next novel will include some of those old friends in minor roles, but they will need to wait a bit for star billings. I do not know what the plot is yet, but the setting will be primarily on the New Mexico side of the Guadalupe mountains. My tentative working title is Ghost of the Guadalupes, but since I do not outline or plot my novels in advance, the story often demands a change in title. I hope to have the novel completed for August release.
As always, thanks for your interest and support of my books. I hope you will find Trouble an entertaining read.
Ron
