HOME FIRES HAS IT ALL - MURDER, ROMANCE, INTRIGUE, AND A YOUNG TOUGH AS BOOT-LEATHER HERO!Top Texas Ranger investigator, Jake Morgan, heads home to wait out an administrative leave of absence from the Rangers, but Jake's return to his Midwest town turns perilous when he asks probing questions about the bizarre death of his best friend, Gage Burnell. Morgan's return home fans the embers of his first love, Pam Mitchell, whose family members are the most likely suspects in the murder of Burnell.In the Tradition of Wyatt Storme and Cole Springer, W.L. Ripley scores again with neo-gunslinger, Jake Morgan, a young razor-sharp investigator who burns with passion and his singular moral code.“I've been a fan of W.L. Ripley for a good long while. Home Fires is another barn burner: tough, exciting, with a tricky mystery at its core. If you're a fan of Robert Parker and Elmore Leonard, don't miss Ripley's latest. One of my go-to, must-read authors.” - Ace Atkins, New York Times Bestselling author of The Shameless and Robert B. Parker's Angel Eyes.
