Uncertain Fate - Ken Casper

In Texas, old secrets die hard.

Nineteen years ago, Frannie Granger disappeared . . .

Since then, the land at Beaumarais near Caddo Lake, East Texas, has hidden the secret of her fate. Now that secret is out, but a mystery remains: who is responsible for what happened on her last hectic morning so long ago?

The local sheriff is convinced Jed Louis, heir to the antebellum plantation house, breeder of Percheron horses, and the eldest of the three foster children Frannie raised as her own, is responsible for what took place.

Gwyn Miller, who leases land from Jed, is equally committed to proving the millionaire horseman was in no way involved.

She's also determined to show Jed that nothing can ever threaten what they have with each other, not even his Uncertain Fate.

Ken Casper is the author of more than 25 novels, including AS THE CROW DIES and CROWS FEAT, the first two books in The Jason Crow West Texas Mystery Series. He and his wife raise horses in West Texas.
