In a world full of noise, Jonathan Smyth doesn’t shout.He listens.And then he digs until the truth comes gasping to the surface.
With The Case of the Screaming Tunnel, bestselling author Frank F. Fiore introduces a new kind of Western hero: not a gunslinger, not a lawman—but a quiet detective armed with logic, grit, and just enough skepticism to survive a town soaked in secrets.
A New Breed of Hero in an Old-School World
Western fiction has always loved the idea of the lone rider, the man who comes from nowhere and leaves once justice is done. But Smyth is more than a symbol—he’s a man with a purpose, a method, and a code.
He’s not there to shoot.He’s not there to scare.He’s there to understand what everyone else is afraid to say.
That’s what makes him the cowboy of our time. In a world drowning in spin, Smyth seeks facts. In towns ruled by legend, he wants evidence.
And if that leads him into a haunted tunnel with blood on its floor?So be it.
Why Frank F. Fiore’s Voice Matters
Frank F. Fiore doesn’t write to follow trends—he writes to challenge the genre.
In The Case of the Screaming Tunnel, he gives us:
A deeply atmospheric setting that feels eerily familiar
A murder wrapped in folklore and denial
A detective who fights fear with facts, not fists
This isn’t just a Western revival. It’s a literary statement—a bold reminder that justice doesn’t always ride in with a posse. Sometimes, it walks in alone and asks the hardest question in the room.
The Lone Hero Returns—Again and Again
Jonathan Smyth Cowboy Sleuth is more than a single book. It’s the beginning of a series where every mystery is tied to a place, a myth, and a community too afraid to face its past.
And Smyth is the kind of hero who won’t leave until the truth is heard—whether people like it or not.
Conclusion: In the West, Legends Die Hard—But So Does the Truth
Frank F. Fiore’s storytelling is bold, deliberate, and hauntingly relevant.In Jonathan Smyth, he’s created a character for readers who crave substance, tension, and the satisfaction of peeling back layers no one else is willing to touch.
