Summary

In Fool's Goal, B.M. Bower crafts a gripping tale of ambition, deception, and redemption set against the rugged backdrop of the American West. Dale Emery, a wealthy young man weary of his predictable life, ventures westward, carrying his fortune in cash, determined to experience the land firsthand. However, his naive optimism is quickly shattered when he's chloroformed and robbed in a Cheyenne hotel, realizing that his wealth makes him a target in this lawless frontier. As he navigates treacherous landscapes and encounters a cast of vivid characters—including the enigmatic Cynthy, daughter of his only trusted ally—Dale is thrust into a world where trust is scarce, and danger lurks at every turn. Bower's narrative masterfully blends suspense, romance, and the harsh realities of frontier life, challenging the notion that fortune alone can secure one's place in an unforgiving land. Fool's Goal is a compelling exploration of the true cost of dreams and the resilience required to chase them.

    1916, England 
    War pacifist Poppy Pemburton celebrates her twenty-third birthday on the front steps of the Chilwell, England ammunition factory with her favorite anti-war sign and her well-loved marching boots. War tears families apart and Poppy will certainly not allow it anywhere near the only family she has left. But when Poppy's dearest friend, Luca, answers the Great War's call to enlist, Poppy is willing to set aside her morals and join forces with the yellow-skinned Chilwell munition workers, known as canary girls, to bring Luca home safe. Because the only thing worse than the possibility of Luca dying in war, is Luca dying without knowing Poppy loves him. 
    German spy Jakob Kirtchner is sent to England with one chance left to prove himself. Jakob's assignment: infiltrate the Chilwell ammunition factory by any means necessary. New employee Poppy Pemburton proves the perfect means. Germany will win the Great War. If Poppy falls with England, so be it. He just can't fall with her. Or for her.
