Shotgun Woman -- Beau Bernstein, Paperback

From the outside looking in, Wheaton County is a picturesque little farm town on a sleepy stretch of interstate, deep in the heart of Texas. A slice of the American dream in its Golden Age. But beyond this carefully manicured fa?ade, something sinister is beginning to surface. The year is 1953 and hot on the heels of a fiercely divisive local election, with desegregation on the ballot, the challenger to the County Commissioner has just been found dead in a roadside ditch. In the eyes of the sheriff's department, the fatality is just an unfortunate traffic accident. But to the man's grieving widow, Eudora Burleson, it's anything but. To uncover the twisted conspiracy and expose the truth, Eudora must go toe-to-toe with corrupt politicians, two-faced townsfolk, and even the infamous Ku Klux Klan themselves - in a town that's all too sympathetic to their cause. But make no mistake; Eudora Burleson is no timid housewife. Raised by a grizzled old outlaw during the Great Depression, Eudora's upbringing was tough, so tough she became. And though she's outnumbered, outflanked, and outgunned, with allies few and far between, Eudora's not backing down. She's taking the fight to them, come hell or high water.
