A Killing on the Platform
At dawn in the rail town of Slate Ridge, a ticket clerk is found dead on the station platform-shot clean, left where everyone can see, and quickly forgotten by a town that survives on silence.
Gideon Cross steps off a train with no badge and no reason to stay-except that someone noticed something they weren't meant to, and paid for it in blood. Freight goes missing. Schedules don't match. Men who ask questions vanish into unlogged cars bound for nowhere.
Cross stays.
As corruption tightens its grip on the rails and daylight proves just as dangerous as night, Cross forces a reckoning in a town built to make men disappear. But in Slate Ridge, justice comes at a price-and the platform always remembers who paid it.
A KILLING ON THE PLATFORM is a hard-edged railroad Western of quiet courage, buried crimes, and the brutal truth that sometimes the only thing standing between order and murder is a man who refuses to look away.
