Turn Left for Home (Home to Lark Creek book 3)
When young Kaden Roscoe breaks into Anna Wilkins’ cottage, he sets off a chain of events that puts her on a collision course with the new lawyer in town. When Jack Donaldson takes on the case, the last thing he expects—or wants— is to share the care of a troubled teenager with this feisty woman. When trouble comes to their door, can Jack and Anna work together to keep Kaden safe long enough to testify? Here's a teaser from the beginning of Home from the Hill:
Graham Peyton squatted and touched the soil around the base of the pole. Freshly disturbed. Anger erupted like breath-stealing red and black pain in his head, swirled like a dust storm around him. What is a surveyor’s marker doing on the slopes of my home? Stepping carefully, he scanned the nearby area for more pegs, footprints, any clue about this intruder on his ridge. And while he searched, dread clumped in his gut. When he found the next marker even higher up near his winter campsite, his muscles tensed. Hunkering down, elbows on his knees, he looked out across the lower slope of the ridge, across the creek that gave its name to the town. A band of steel tightened around his chest, squeezed his lungs. This is a declaration of war. Someone’s trying to steal my home. Graham tossed another piece of wood onto the fire, his fireplace little more than the corner remnant of a low stone wall, all that remained of the ruined cottage where he spent the winter months. He sat on a campstool and stretched his feet towards the fire. Jacqueline appeared on the far side of the clearing, pecking at insects in the leaves. She spied him and ran with her rolling sailor gait straight towards him. Clucking loudly—her chicken version of welcome home, he thought—she fluffed her feathers and strutted around his legs. Graham picked her up and cradled her in his arms. “Guess you’re cold, hey, Jacky? And we’re under attack by unknown enemies.” He stroked the dark-barred hen’s head with one finger. “It’s just you and me, Jacky, against whatever malign forces are trying to take over our mountain. The question is, how do we defend ourselves, hmm?” Jacky clucked, the sound low and soothing as though she understood and sympathised. Graham stared into the flames heating his dinner. Once upon a time those stones now keeping the wind from his fire had formed the wall of a cottage. He imagined four walls, a door, a window or two . . . he grunted and pushed the image out of his head. Even the thought of walls all around stole his breath. He barely tolerated his tent and that, only when he had to. Like tonight. He glanced up into the crystal-clear sky. Stars shone like diamond pinpricks in the darkness. “There’ll be a heavy frost tonight. Reckon you’ll need to sleep inside with me.” Jacky lay in the crook of his arm, her weight insignificant, but her presence warm and comforting. Before young Kaden had entered Graham’s life, before he’d stepped up and offered to keep the deaf teenager safe from his underworld uncle, Jacky’s company had been enough. “I wonder how Kaden’s doing in his training.” But Jacky failed to reply. Graham didn’t need a reply. He hadn’t needed anyone in nearly thirty years, but Kaden’s departure had left an unexpected emptiness in his life. It was too quiet. Lonely. “Maybe there’re more young ’uns like Kaden who need help. Maybe it’s time I did something about it. And maybe there’s a way to do that and keep people off our mountain at the same time. What do you think?” Gently he set the sleeping hen into a nest of clothes inside the tent before ladling out a portion of stew onto his tin plate. He ate staring into the flames and thinking. If he could do more work like he had with Kaden, maybe even offer an off-the-grid witness protection service to Jack Donaldson’s police friend, Smithy, perhaps they could help keep his mountain free from development? His mountain and his home, his choice of how he lived his life—they were under attack. Unless I do something about it.
