There’s something about a small town with a story everyone knows—but no one wants to talk about.In Jonathan Smyth Cowboy Sleuth: The Case of the Screaming Tunnel, bestselling author Frank F. Fiore takes readers into a world where the past isn’t just haunting—it’s hiding something.

And it’s up to one cowboy detective to pull the truth from the shadows, even if it costs him everything.


The Tunnel Is Just the Beginning

The Screaming Tunnel legend is famous.A girl. A fire. A scream that never stops.

But when a body turns up in that very tunnel, Jonathan Smyth knows better than to blame the ghost.

Instead, he asks:

  • Who benefits from the legend?

  • Who wants the truth buried?

  • And what’s more terrifying: a haunting—or a cover-up?

Frank F. Fiore doesn’t give easy answers. He gives you layered lies, unsettling clues, and a hero who refuses to stop digging.


A Detective Who Knows Fear Is a Weapon

What makes Smyth different from other Western heroes isn’t just his badge—or his hat.It’s his refusal to play by the town’s rules.

While others spread the legend, Smyth focuses on:

✅ Inconsistencies in witness stories✅ Motives masked by superstition✅ The silence between every nervous glance

Frank F. Fiore crafts a detective who fights myths not with fists, but with facts—and in a world like this, that’s the most dangerous weapon of all.


Why This Story Sticks with You

Frank’s writing lingers because he knows how to build a slow burn.The danger isn’t always obvious.The enemy isn’t always armed.The truth isn’t always wanted.

Instead, suspense comes from the things left unsaid—and Smyth’s quiet insistence on saying them anyway.

By the time the real killer is revealed, you’ll realize the tunnel isn’t the scariest place in town.The scariest place?Is the collective guilt of a town that knew all along.


Conclusion: The West Has a New Kind of Hero

Frank F. Fiore’s Jonathan Smyth Cowboy Sleuth is more than a mystery.It’s a reminder that legends might hide ghosts—but lies hide murderers.

And Smyth is the cowboy detective who won’t ride off until the last secret’s dragged into the light.
