Then a railroad company arrives with survey stakes, polished promises, and a two-hundred-year-old land grant that predates every deed in the county.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmmett Vance is nothing like the enemy Cole faced before - no gun, no temper, just a corporation's bottomless patience and a forged grant that could take Amos Whitfield's ranch and half of Main Street without firing a shot. When Cole's old adversary Tom Reyes rides back into town with a lead on the document's true origin, Cole finds himself fighting a battle that can't be won by standing his ground alone - it has to be won on paper, in a courtroom, against opponents who know the law better than the people it's supposed to protect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the noose tightens, a young scout finds his courage, a widow finds her voice, and a whole county has to decide, once again, whether it's willing to stand together against a force that never has to raise its voice to be dangerous. THE IRON LINE is the gripping second novel in The Stone County Drifter series, about the slow, hard work of defending a home once it's finally been won.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePerfect for readers who love: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrontier communities fighting corporate land grabs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA found family standing together against long odds\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eForged documents, courtroom drama, and a race against time\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eSlow-burn romance woven through high-stakes adventure\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBook Two of The Stone County Drifter series.
