When the Smoke Clears

Wade Brackett becomes caught in a deadly struggle after a wounded man reveals the existence of a ledger that could destroy the powerful Tom Calder. With Sarah Whitlow at his side, Wade follows the trail to the abandoned mission at Glory Ridge, where they uncover not only the evidence against Calder, but forgotten barrels of blasting powder left from the old mining days. As Calder and his hired men close in, the fight for the ledger leads back to Glory Ridge, where one careless shot could turn the entire powder yard into an inferno.
When the smoke finally clears, Wade must decide whether to keep riding-or stay with the woman who has given him a reason to call one place home. When the Smoke Clears is a fast-moving Western tale of corruption, courage, danger, and the promise of a new beginning.
