Some Men Solve Crimes. Smyth Unearths Legacies.

In Jonathan Smyth Cowboy Sleuth: The Case of the Screaming Tunnel, solving the murder is only half the story.The other half?Confronting the past a town tried to bury.

Frank F. Fiore doesn’t write mysteries for entertainment—he writes them to expose the roots of silence, to show what happens when truth becomes inconvenient… and when someone finally decides to dig it up anyway.

Smyth Doesn’t Just Ask “Who Did It?”—He Asks, “Why Did You Let It Happen?”

When Smyth steps into a town like this one, he’s not just chasing a killer.He’s chasing the decades of complicity that let that killer hide in plain sight.

The legend of the tunnel? It’s not history.It’s cover.

Fiore gives Smyth the rare courage to ask the questions that feel personal—because they are.

• Who was ignored?

• Who was protected?

• And why did everyone agree to pretend the legend was enough?

This Isn’t About Justice. It’s About Truth That Lasts

Justice can fade. It can be misused.But truth?Once it’s out—it lingers. It changes people.

Smyth doesn’t expect thank-yous.He expects resistance.Because he knows what happens when you pull up something that’s been buried too long: it stinks. And people flinch.

But Smyth doesn’t stop digging.Because the only thing worse than the crime is the legacy of silence that allowed it.
