Return To Laramie

Deputy Beau Messinger's quiet life changes after he stops two stagecoach robbers. His success earns him reward money and resentment from fellow deputies in Cheyenne. Seeking a fresh start, Beau returns to Laramie after ten years away. Back home, Beau faces new challenges. He clashes with Sheriff Buford Carlyle, deals with his father's pressure to return to the family ranch, and navigates complicated feelings for Sandy, a woman from Cheyenne, and Josie, his childhood friend. When the sheriff is wounded, Beau must investigate two murders in the county—one he feels responsible for and another involving a prominent citizen. Beau struggles with self-doubt as he works to solve the crimes and earn the town's trust. The novel follows his efforts to find the killers, resolve his personal conflicts, and determine whether the love he seeks will come to pass.
