After the Shadows

Emily Leland sheds no tears when she hears of her abusive husband's death. What she does feel is hope--hope that she and her young son can start over in Sweetwater Crossing, the Texas town her father helped found. But the town is not the peaceful haven she imagined. Her father has died under suspicious circumstances, and her husband's family is hot on her trail. Craig Ferguson, the town's new schoolteacher and a widower raising his son Noah, is also seeking a fresh start. He's determined to put his past behind him and help the people of Sweetwater Crossing. When Emily arrives, Craig is drawn to her strength and her quiet beauty. But as they work together to uncover the truth about her father's death, they find themselves in the crosshairs of a dangerous enemy.
