At Journey’s End: A Western Frontier Story

Jonah Mercer came home from war carrying scars no one could see, and a heart still tied to the woman who never answered his letters.

When he rides into Sarah Marlowe’s homestead, he finds only smoke and flame.
He drags Sarah and her young son from the flames.
Her husband does not walk out with them.

With winter closing in and nothing left but ash, they join a wagon train bound for Colorado Territory.
Jonah tells himself he is only seeing them safely west.

Nothing more.

But danger rides beside them.

Two outlaws hiding stolen silver have slipped into the train.
Their betrayed leader, Ramp Heath, is hunting them across the plains.
And when murder strikes inside the circle of wagons, suspicion spreads like frost.

Jonah knows the violence he tried to bury has followed him.
When the outlaws take the one thing he cannot lose, he is forced into a deadly alliance with the very man who would shoot him first.

Ramp Heath.

Jonah must face the darkness inside himself to save a boy, and the woman he never stopped loving.
On the open frontier, survival demands blood.
The only question left is if he wins the war on the plains, can he also win back the woman he left behind?
