This paradise world has a dark side: a multi-racial female cop can’t stop thinking about a drowned girl’s face… because it reminds her of her own.

Overcoming a past filled with scars, Lei makes a life for herself and her dog, Keiki, as a Hawaii cop in the sleepy Big Island town of Hilo. When a routine patrol turns up two murdered teens, Lei’s world is rocked. She knows one of the girls, and she can’t rest until she finds answers—not only about the victims, but about her own shadowed past as well.

She’ll look so beautiful…once she’s dead.

He knows he’s twisted. He knows he’s wrong. He just doesn’t care. But now there’s a female cop on his trail that won’t give up, and she’s gonna be next.

He stands between two worlds — and both want him dead.

Nash is a hardened gunfighter with Apache blood in his veins and danger on every trail he rides. He knows the land, the people, and the cost of choosing sides — but some journeys leave no room for neutrality.

Hired to escort a desperate miner through hostile territory, Nash knows the risks before the first mile is ridden. Tensions are high. Old wounds run deep. And when they find a wagon slaughtered and left to rot in the dust, it’s clear this crossing will demand blood.

With enemies closing in, a loyal dog at his side, and a mysterious woman who may be ally or threat, Nash must rely on instinct, skill, and hard-earned experience to keep them alive.

Trail of the Gunfighter is a gritty, fast-paced western packed with danger, hard choices, and frontier justice — the first book in the Trail of the Gunfighter Western series, following a man who survives by walking the line others won’t.

Ideal for fans of classic western action, morally complex heroes, and long-running series built for binge reading.
