Brodie 1: Home Front

Brodie is home to a world he left behind eighteen years ago.
He first joined the Confederacy and then post-war served as Special Marshal (see the ‘Stringer and Brodie’ series) and each position has taken its bitter toll.
He is barely back before Brodie encounters a shooting that is overture to a more than deadly confrontation. There is love in the offing with a sensible widow who is the sheriff’s sister but at each sunrise another vicious crime appears to darken their day. The greed of an arrogant rancher and his army of gunmen threatens to overwhelm the entire county and brings increasing danger to his family. Brodie may well have tired of such encounters but he is still inexorably drawn into the lethal conflict whether he likes it or not.
