Presenting my weekly offering to Six Sentence Sunday. Here are some lines from my western novella Eden Springs, a story of violence, sex, and astronomy in the old west. I just sent back my galley proof edits, so this is getting closer and closer. It will come curtsey of Dreamspinner Press.

He looked back at the dark hills, hiding a couple of murdering bastards who were proving as difficult to find as an invisible star. He squinted at them. Even in the dark he could make out where the rocky tree line was.
