Shadows Over Poteet
Book One of The Poteet Chronicles
In the heart of South Texas, the annual Strawberry Festival is a celebration of community, tradition, and the sweet bounty of the land-until a dark secret shatters its innocent facade. When Priscilla Mendoza, a desperate runaway from a powerful cartel family in Nuevo Laredo, flees into the quiet town of Poteet, she brings with her a storm of danger and betrayal.
Rescued from a vicious ambush at the notorious KP Corral by the steadfast Clay Rios-a veteran and community leader determined to protect his hometown-Priscilla finds herself thrust into a perilous struggle that reaches far beyond the festival's festive lights. As cartel operatives infiltrate every corner of the town, Clay and Priscilla uncover clues pointing to a sinister plot: the festival is being used as a cover for a massive, secret human trafficking operation, orchestrated by shadowy figures like the enigmatic Carmen Delgado and the elusive mastermind known only as El Viento.
Torn between old loyalties and the desperate need to forge a new future, Clay and Priscilla must navigate a labyrinth of corruption, cultural tension, and hidden alliances. With the community divided along ethnic lines and powerful forces threatening to upend everything Poteet once stood for, they are forced to confront the truth about the town's past and the deadly price of its future.
Shadows Over Poteet is a gritty, high-stakes crime thriller where every secret uncovered leads to another question, every alliance is tested, and no one is truly safe. Step into a world where the border isn't just a line on a map-it's a battleground, and the fight for freedom has only just begun.
