Runaway

The runaway's story comes to the fore, and it's far more than anyone suspected. A frontier world. One Sheriff. And all the action one Spaceport can't hold. SagCon's Special Investigator gets comfortable plying the Mother Lode, but he didn't come alone. Sparks fly when a second SI shows up, one from the sheriff's sordid past. Does the runaway's grandfather want to protect her, or prune her from the family tree? Why is the second SI in town? How far would you go for your family? Fans of Firefly, Bonanza, and Tombstone will love this space opera / western and all the characters that make the story great. I'm retired from the Marine Corps, spending time both as enlisted and as an officer. Then I went to law school, took my law degree into business consulting where I became a business diagnostics specialist and leadership coach. I retired from that at age 52 because I was away from home way too much. That's when I started writing full time, and I have not looked back since. This is a great ride! I have a variety of stories now since I've been at this for a little while, lots of short stories so you can see if you like my style. I have a number of best selling novels in categories that matter to me - space opera, military scifi, Space Marine, colonization, and genetic engineering. As a serial daydreamer, it's nice to finally get the stories on paper (virtual and digital paper, that is).Visit my web page, craigmartelle.com for the latest posts and updates or find me on Facebook, Author Craig Martelle.
