Cypress Blood: Large Print Edition (The Cypress Run Quartet)

Cypress Blood, the third book in The Cypress Run Quartet, is a frontier romantic thriller about loyalty, sacrifice, and the family you refuse to lose. Also legal tomfoolery. Also breakouts and break-ins. Also kitchen knives and righteous fury. And gators. Mustn’t forget the alligators.

Sheriff Tom Bracken thought Cypress Run had finally found its footing. New bank. Booming port. An expanding clinic. A whole town willing to trust him.

But when a Treasury inspector turns up murdered and incriminating ledgers vanish from his locked office, Tom becomes the prime suspect in a conspiracy he was trying to expose. The men framing him wear government authority like armor. They remember Chicago and they know exactly how to make him break.

While Tom is stripped of his badge and locked behind bars, Ellie faces a town splitting down the middle. Lies spread faster than truth, and the Brackens discover the conspiracy reaches far beyond Cypress Run. It has taken families, shattered lives, and left a trail soaked in blood.

With Ellie's quiet strength holding their family intact amid a town divided into factions, Tom must outmaneuver men who aren't afraid to use his past to destroy his future—before Cypress Run is swallowed whole.
