*BEST OF TEXAS BOOK AWARD WINNER FOR HISTORICAL MYSTERY*
Love, Law, and Justice comes to boom town Texas
The discovery of oil has broken the stranglehold the Great Depression had on a dying East Texas town. Strangers are pouring into Ashland. Where there is oil, there are jobs, as well as con artists, thieves, scalawags, and at least one murderer.
One stranger drives a hearse. But who is he, and why is he found hanging from the crown block of an oil derrick.
The Sheriff might solve the mystery. It's his job. But he's discovered shot to death on his own drilling rig.
No one in town is above suspicion. But who has a deadly motive?
Eudora Durant is the most beautiful widow in town. She's also the richest. With the charming con man Doc Bannister at her side, she risks everything to bring law and justice to a struggling boom town even if she has to personally keep an innocent man from being sentenced to the electric chair.
As one reviewer said about book one of the Boomtown saga series, Back Side of a Blue Moon: This story set in a small town in East Texas in the Great Depression should go down as a classic in American literature."
