Blunt Force Trauma

A modern Western crime thriller about a combat veteran framed for murder in the small Texas town he came home to. Framed-hero suspense, second-chance romance and small-town corruption with Hill Country grit.

An innocent man doesn't run. He fights.

After two combat tours in Afghanistan, Adam Cash returns to small-town Pinyon, Texas, hoping for peace and a steady job as deputy sheriff. But his high school nemesis, Sheriff Griff Turner, has other plans and makes it clear Cash isn't welcome.

Still haunted by war, and by the heartbreak of walking away from his high school sweetheart, Edie, Cash launches a longshot campaign to unseat Turner and loses. When Turner turns up dead the next day, all signs point to Cash.

Now on the run and desperate to clear his name, Cash uncovers a conspiracy far more dangerous than he imagined, one that could destroy countless lives. To stop it, he'll have to risk everything, including the one chance he's left with Edie.

Award-winning author Jeff Kerr brings his deep Texas roots and passion for the Western tradition to this character-driven series packed with suspense, heart, and justice.

Blunt Force Trauma is the first book in the Adam Cash Mystery Series, perfect for fans of Craig Johnson, C.J. Box, and modern Western crime thrillers.
