Reckon Broderick believed the long trail for justice had finally reached its end in Philadelphia. The men behind the fire that destroyed his family were exposed, the truth laid bare, and the eastern power that shaped the conspiracy had begun to crack.

Then a telegram arrives.

FORT LYON NEEDS YOU — URGENT.

On the far edge of Colorado Territory, Acting Lieutenant Aaron Whitcomb is facing a crisis the Army cannot control. Wagon trains are vanishing across the plains, tribes are being driven toward war, and someone is quietly pushing the frontier toward chaos.

When Reckon rides west again, he finds the frontier on the brink. Freight routes are burning, riders strike without warning, and powerful men are using fear and bloodshed to shape the future of the plains. What looks like frontier violence may be something far more deliberate.

Because the deeper Reckon and Whitcomb dig, the clearer the truth becomes:

The war spreading across the prairie is not accidental.

It is being engineered.

Fort Lyon Descent is Book Five of the Reckon Broderick series, where the fight for justice returns to the open frontier—and the forces Reckon uncovered in the East begin to reveal how far their reach truly extends.
