By King… This is the first book in the eight book CROW’S LAKE series. Although it is credited to King, Chandler was very much involved in it’s content. It begins in the 1970’s with Tim (Bo) Hasbrook, sitting in his hometown bar watching TV. Returning from 5 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit, he’s approached by Lindsey, the niece of now deceased Vern Johnson, who had taken Bo in as a 15-year-old orphan. Together, they will resurrect Vern’s neglected ranching operation and attempt to solve his murder. Vern, knowing that Bo was innocent, had spent his last 4 years trying to prove that fact before being murdered by the man who had committed the crime that Bo was accused of.

By Chandler and King… This book is a prequel to the Crow’s Lake Saga which has now reached 8 books. It begins in the 1890’s when 18 year old Vern Johnson sets out to make his fortune. It will take the reader through his trials and tribulations as he partners with Pappy Adams during his foray into gold mining where he prospers beyond all expectations. He then purchases a failing ranching operation and will spend the next half century turning it into a successful beef cattle operation.

By Chandler and King… This book is a continuation of the Crow’s Lake Saga centering around the life and times of Vern Johnson. After becoming wealthy prospecting for gold, he will sell his gold mine and become a successful rancher, eventually marrying and being blessed with a son. Life isn’t always as peachy as one would like and Vern’s life will bear that out.

By Chandler and King… This the fifth book in the Crow’s Lake series and is a follow-up to The Crows. It will continue the story of Vern Johnson’s life and times bringing us well into the 1900’s wherein Vern is “passing the torch” so to speak as he assists his hired hands in setting up their own ranching operation.

By Chandler and King… Pappy (then known as Thomas Adams) becomes orphaned at the age of 16 and, lying his age, joins the confederacy to fight in the civil war. After mustering out he returns to his burned-out ranch to rescue it. Secretly marrying, causes his father-in-law to threaten imprisonment for rape and forces him to turn his ranch over to her and leave the area. This leads to discovering his gold mine and, 17 years later, to his partnering up with Vern Johnson, who convinces him to write to his long-lost wife. After re-connecting with her, they’ll will sell their gold mine, later joining together to turn Vern’s cattle ranch into a successful operation.

BROTHERS ADAMS is the 7th book of the CROWS LAKE series. It details the lives of Luke and Darvin Adams. It begins in early 1861 when Luke and Darvin join the confederacy to fight in the Civil War. As the story meanders through the trials of war, then a difficult and dangerous 8-month journey with a wagon train, followed by 5 years of fruitless digging for gold, one would understand if the brothers were to become discouraged.

LAST RIDE is the 8th (and likely last) book in the CROWS LAKE series. It actually picks up where book five left off, detailing the later life of Vern Johnson. He will lead the town into a modern world of electtricity and motor vehicles. He will take you along on the journey as he captures or kills those who operate outside the law.

The eight-book CROW’S LAKE series centers primarily around the life and times of Vern Johnson. Although, he has already passed away in the first two books, which center around the solving of his murder. Book three flashes back to the 1890s and finds Vern heading into the mountains as an 18-year-old, out to seek his fortune in the gold fields. He’ll save Pappy Adams from a sure-death situation, then partner up with him in an extremely successful gold mining operation. After selling their gold mine, they begin a cattle ranching operation, and over the next half-century, will deal with cattle rustlers, murderers, and a multitude of situations common to the old West. Vern will eventually convert his cattle ranching operation into a horse-breeding business which will afford him the time to become Sheriff of Cedarville. He’ll spend his latter years in that capacity, before retiring and eventually concentrating his efforts on clearing the name of Bo Hasbrook, a young orphan whom he took in after the untimely death of his mom. Several of the book’s flashback to The Civil War days to discuss Pappy Adams and his two brothers, all three of whom fought in that war. During that portion of the saga, we’ll also deal with the trials of heading west with a wagon train, homesteading, and reviving a life after tragedy and death. Over his lifetime, Vern will have three different love interests. There are some steamy love scenes, however, we strive to make our stories worthy of reading by young and old alike. Therefore, those scenes are not overly graphic. The same can be said for any scenes of a violent nature. A Western wouldn’t be a Western without some shoot-em-up-bang-bang, but we try not to overdo it by limiting the violence.

By Chandler and King… Stony Johnson, a highly respected, very capable, licensed private investigator, operates up and down the Treasure Coast of Florida, primarily in and around the Stuart/ Port St. Lucie area.
