How far will Jarrod go to keep a promise he made to a client? And where will this adventure take him? I posted this awhile back on another site and decided to share it here. I hope everyone enjoys it.

This is for the people who have asked me to do a follow up story about Zach Fain, the sheriff in Rimfire who did not charge Jarrod with any crimes after his behavior there, but who had let Cass Hyatt out of jail so Jarrod could kill him.

Follows "Pity is the Worst." Nick "cracks Jarrod open."

The Barkley brothers meet a man who has had an experience all too similar to theirs at Rimfire, and Jarrod discovers the man's situation can help his.

Nick tells Heath a story about Jarrod's childhood, that Jarrod didn't know Nick knew about. Based on a true story about Ketcham, Cheatham and the sign on their mercantile in Stockton in the early 1850s.

I challenged myself to take an older story I'd written, start it off the same but then take it in a completely different direction. This version of "The Man From Somewhere," posted a while back, has Danny asking for Jarrod's help because Libby has lost track of her life and her finances.

Set about a year after Nick and Hester Converse. Nick falls in love again, with a beautiful, intelligent businesswoman who has just come to Stockton – but what really is her interest in him?

Liam, twin brother to Heath and half brother to Jarrod, Nick, Audra and Eugene, has begun to make a life in Stockton with his family. When a person from his past makes an appearance, Liam must find the courage to speak about a dark time to save his sister from danger.

This story - another short one posted on another site in response to a ten-minute challenge - is related to a story I wrote called "Among the Dead at Alto."

Trouble from the war comes back to haunt. A brief scene from a ten minute sprint challenge on another site.

A short one-chapter story I wrote for another site's "Ten Minute Sprint." The title explains everything.

A two part story on grief and false guilt... First chapter has one Barkley, second chapter will have three.

The Mock Courtmartial of General Alderson that ensnared Nick continues to reverberate; effecting both Nick as well as his relationship with Jarrod

Set four months after "Days of Wrath." Jarrod's client, a difficult man Jarrod doesn't like much, is found murdered shortly after meeting with Jarrod, and Jarrod has left town and the family without a word.

Nick and Elizabeth Hyatt's story...the one not told in "Shelter From the Storms". Rated T to be safe. Rating and Genre always subject to change. Last chapter has Jarrod, Heath and Victoria. Epilogue has Nick with those three Barkleys.
