  In this bold new series, a legendary gunslinger tries to outrun his past and start a new life. But after so many years, so many bullets—and so much bloodshed—he finds old habits die hard. And new enemies die harder . . . 
   
   
   
  THEY CALL HIM "TEXAS LIGHTNING" 
   
   
   
  His name is Jon Gage. Most folks know him as "Texas Lightning," the fastest draw in the West. Rumor has it he's killed more than thirty men in half as many years. His reputation as a gunslinger, widowmaker, and all-around hellraiser inspires awe, respect—and fear. But when an innocent woman dies in an ill-fated shootout, Gage decides it's time to drop his guns and change his wicked ways. There's just one problem: 
   
   
   
  There is no rest for the wicked. 
   
   
   
  A nameless drifter haunted by his past, Gage hopes to right the wrongs he committed. He's fighting on the side of the angels now, whether it's a widow losing her freight business, a wagon train of farmers in trouble, or a small-time rancher battling a big-time cattle baron. Wherever he goes, there are wicked men preying on the innocent—and some of them recognize Gage as the notorious Texas Lightning. Gage knows he can't outrun his demons. But he can still outgun them . . .

  A Western adventure rooted in truth, forged in mystery. 
  The Black Hills stood untouched, unclaimed, and full of secrets when Ezra Kind carved his fate into a slab of sandstone. What began as a search for gold quickly turned into a desperate fight for survival — and a message that would echo through generations. 
  Decades later, as new settlers and fortune-seekers flood the Dakota Territory, two brothers uncover the half-buried stone and find themselves pulled into the mystery it holds. In a land where fact and folklore blur, where hope is weighed against hardship, the Kind family’s legacy stirs once again. 
  Based on real events and inspired by the legend of the Thoen Stone, The Kind Whisper launches The Kind Legacy Series — a sweeping historical Western filled with frontier grit, hidden truths, and the powerful ties of family. Along the way, it crosses paths with some of the West’s most iconic figures—including General George Custer, Wild Bill Hickok, and Calamity Jane. 
  Some treasures are buried in the earth. Others are buried in the heart. 
  Some whispers echo through time. 
  This is one of them.

  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating. 
   
  From their pens to your your ears.
