The Ranger

In the Rocky Mountains, there are a million stories, but not everyone lives to tell the tale.

When Brent Chase watches a local low-life get murdered in his coffee shop, he thinks it's the worst thing that can happen.

Then the killers come to his door. Not with a threat, but with an offer. Work for them as they help the mob set up shop in the small mountain vacation town. They'll bail out his failing business if he cleans their money and gives them space to meet. Trapped between bankruptcy and a life of crime, what choice will Chase make?

Remington Dean is a man of contradictions. After spending time as a minister, he became a Texas Ranger. But a case got too hot, and his wife was murdered. Seeking out her killers led him to Eden Falls, Colorado, where he became a National Park Investigator. Three years after her death, Dean is still seeking answers and vengeance. Known for his quick wit and quicker draw, Remington Dean will not rest until he finds his brand of justice. Are there answers in the murder case he just caught?

Ashleigh Storms is a part-time barista, part-time reporter for the Rocky Mountain Gothic. Her days are spent writing about the people of the mountains- human interest puff pieces that will never win her awards or advance her career. Then one day she overhears Remington Dean and some Colorado Bureau of Investigations agents questioning her boss, Brent Chase. Has she possibly stumbled on the story of the century- at least in Eden Falls?

Criminal hillbillies, Denver mafia, good cops, sketchy realtors, and the Ranger are on a collision course in Eden Falls, Colorado. Under the shadow of the mountains, there will be a reckoning.

In the Rocky Mountains, there are a million stories, but who will live to tell the tale of The Ranger, the first book of the Rocky Mountain Gothic Series?
