Trouble On The Brazos
(2026)(The second book in the Gaines Family Saga series)
A novel by Michael R Ritt
A single shot inside a bank turns everything upside down. When Matt Gaines is killed during a robbery near Fort Worth, his brother Luke swiftly gathers a group and sets out to find the shooter. What starts as a routine manhunt turns into a long, deadly ride across West Texas. The remorseless killer is heading for the railroad and freedom—if Luke doesn’t track him down first.
Trouble on the Brazos is a down and dirty, gritty Western about grief, revenge, and a man determined to see justice done and avenge his brother… On the Western frontier, some trails only end one way—bloodshed and Boot Hill.
Although he writes in several genres, Michael R. Ritt is an award-winning Western author whose work reflects a deep connection to the American frontier. He spent more than two decades in the plains and mountains of Colorado and Montana, immersed in their rugged beauty and rich history.
He’s a member of Western Writers of America. His debut novel, The Sons of Philo Gaines, earned the Will Rogers Gold Medallion Award. In 2023, he won the Peacemaker Award for Best Western Short Fiction for his short story, ‘The Would-be Bounty Hunters.’
