About this ebook
In 2011 Texas was burning, and one of the biggest fires was the Rock House Fire, which burned right through the town of Fort Davis in far west Texas. This story begins and ends as the fire reaches the edge of the town. The characters are: the park police officer at the nearby state park; his on-again-off-again girlfriend - poet and bartender of the town's only bar; his nemesis, the powerful president of the town's only bank; a beautiful Englishwoman in a motor home; a trial lawyer who returns after a thirty year absence to find herself, and a malevolent motorcycle gang member who stays behind when the rest of the gang returns home. This is the author's third novel starring a Texas park police officer. As in his prior novels, most of the settings are real places.
Robert Deming
I live in Fredericksburg, Texas, work as an independent financial advisor, and write stories. I see them as modern westerns in the tradition of Zane Grey and Louis L'Amour, but without the horses and cows. The stories take place amid grand western landscapes and my protagonists are honest and true. To date I have written three novels with Texas park police officers are the principle characters; men who carry a gun but don't need it to keep their territory safe. I know these landscapes intimately through hours and hours of walking in them and getting to know their people.
