Lindermuth’s latest book is a western with a
mystery element to it.
As announced on
the
Sundown
Press Blog where there is also an excerpt from the new book, Blake’s Rule is
now available at Amazon in
print
and
eBook
formats.
Synopsis:
Blake’s rule has always been to do what’s right…not what’s easy.
Range
detective Sam Blake is after cattle rustlers—but when a beautiful woman is
accused of murdering her employer, he has to step in and see justice done.
Miriam had her reasons for the brutal killing, and though she’s not talking,
Blake understands there’s more to this crime than meets the eye.
When
the local sheriff, James Fremont, asks Blake to spirit Miriam and her two
children out of town before a lynch mob comes for her, he agrees. But Cyrus
Diebler, the influential rancher who is intent on seeing her pay for her crime,
is not about to be stopped. He will go to whatever lengths he must to see her
dead, though it means putting his own family in harm’s way.
As
Blake and Miriam stay one step ahead of the relentless Diebler and his deadly
henchmen, a relationship begins to build between them. When Blake learns the
real story behind the murder, and the dark secrets of Diebler’s motivation to
see Miriam dead, he vows he will protect her and her children at all costs—even
if it means his own life.
