"A small-town thriller with the grit of Yellowstone and the layered intensity of The Wire." - Reedsy Discovery

Horsehead Crossing, Texas, solves its problems quietly, with unspoken consequences. Tacy Vernon learned this the hard way, and when she goes missing, her boyfriend Chase Haven must learn it too. When Tacy clashes with the town's bombastic mayor and uncovers a corrupt airport deal, she becomes a reluctant whistleblower - and a target of the powerful Baxter Whitey family. After she vanishes, Chase embarks on a perilous quest to uncover the truth.

"Readers will keep turning the pages until the explosive ending." - Kirkus Reviews

Crafted by Andy Ivey, a fifth-generation Texan and former KCLW 900 AM host, this fast-paced rural thriller echoes the wild lore of Texas airwaves. Castle Gap stands out in the rural thriller subgenre with its West Texas setting, fast-paced action, and deep dives into small-town corruption and moral ambiguity.

"...a modern-day western... with sharp dialog and an ending that satisfies..." - Alex Norton, Likely Story
