“The Samuel Craddock series may be the best regional crime series around today” Library Journal Starred Review of Guilt Strikes at Granger’s Store

Strange goings-on in a small Texas town

Newly single Chief of Police Samuel Craddock hasn’t got time to worry about his own troubles—not with Lily Barnes’ wild accusation and trucks dumping suspicious cargo outside Jarrett Creek late at night.

A family feud with a lethal twist

Lily is sure her twin sister, Jewel, is trying to poison her—but it’s Jewel who’s discovered dead. Did she have a secret that could lead Craddock to her killer?

A dangerously toxic investigation

Craddock’s fears about the cargo are heightened by a series of alarming events. What’s really being dumped, and why does the millionaire oil boss who owns the land want to keep it hidden? As Craddock closes in on the truth—and a murderer—the stakes couldn’t be higher . . .

Fans of Steven F. Havill and C.J. Box will love this twist-filled mystery series set in rural Texas.
