Synopsis

Who can you really trust? Nosy neighbors? Those damned outsiders? The government? ... a Park Ranger who wants nothing more than to hide from the shadowy affronts that follow him?

Ranger Jack Chastain returns to the canyons of New Mexico after fighting wildfires, and steps into a political firestorm. But of whose making? He wants to run, but a beautiful woman makes him take a stand.

Who is behind the threats to destroy a national park? And a newly created national monument, and nature itself? When mysterious provocations pit neighbor against neighbor, a battle between 'self interest' and 'do the right thing' ensues, trapping Chastain between people who face hard truths about who they can really trust, and a fire that can change everything.

Public Trust is the original Jack Chastain National Park Mystery, where he finds the embrace and solitude of the desert southwest, and meets Kelly Culberson, a woman lamenting seeing her community torn apart.

A novel in the tradition of national park mysteries and ranger action adventures, the likes of Nevada Barr. Buy now and enter the world Ranger Jack Chastain seeks to protect.
