The Day of the Deputy
Stanton Brunner has always lived in the shadow of famous lawmen. His father is a respected town sheriff, his grandfather a legendary, retired U.S. Marshal. But Stan never wanted to have it out with the bandits of the world, and was content to live the quiet life of a frontier town gunsmith. This comes to a crashing end when Bloody Brit Talmadge and his band of outlaws ride into town. Talmadge is a hardened killer with a cruel philosophy to match. He means to rule the town and surrounding valley with an iron fist, and that requires eliminating all who might challenge him. When tragedy strikes Stan’s family at Talmadge’s hands, the young man finds himself with a choice: slink away and do nothing, or take up the badge where no one else will. If he stays and fights, he faces seasoned killers who have him outnumbered, and have the townsfolk running scared. Stan, on the other hand, has never shot at a man, never enforced the law, and never really been in a serious fight. Beyond his inexperience, he’s also torn between a duty to see justice done, and a seething, justifiable desire for revenge. About the only thing the man has going for him is courage, and soon enough that courage will be the only thing standing between a small town and complete annihilation.

New Book Now Avalailable! THE BOYS OF THE BREACH
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08783F4CK
Easton Keller and Breck Everett wanted nothing more than to serve their country. But when budget cuts cause them to be ‘prematurely retired’ from the Special Forces, these two warriors find themselves embarking on a new adventure. They’ve been hired to provide security for scientists working at a facility that explores the multiverse, opening breaches into other universes to see what’s out there and what they can learn. Given the infinite span of the multiverse, there are endless discoveries out their waiting for mankind to come and find them. But with every possible eventuality existing in one parallel universe or another, they’re bound to run into danger…lots of danger. That’s where the Easton and Breck come in. Leading a guard company of other former military and police veterans, they take on everything the multiverse can throw at them: Pissed-off sentient dinosaurs, alien critters who feed off body-horror, prehistoric bears with a grudge, interdimensional corsair slavers, wild west madmen bent on refighting the civil war, genius scientists who completely lack common sense, parallel versions of themselves who cheat at cards…even ex-wives they may or may not still be hung up on. Their job is to face them all and bring the egg-heads home safe, and they’re among the few who might actually be able to do it. The multiverse may be a dangerous place, but these are dangerous men…
