The Gravedigger's Daughter (Iron and Ashes #4)

She’s the gravedigger’s daughter. He’s the one man who might believe her. But in a frontier town built on secrets, telling the truth could get them both killed.

Laurel Hayes has survived a lifetime of whispers and shame. When her father is accused of crimes he didn’t commit—and marked for the hangman’s noose—she’s forced to take desperate measures to save him. Out of options, she turns to Alan Tate, a lawyer in Ironwood with a past as complicated as her own.

Alan didn’t come to Texas to play hero. Burned by betrayal, he’s sworn off trust—and especially women. But Laurel’s courage and fierce faith spark something in him he thought was long buried. And when she uncovers a deadly conspiracy threatening to tear the town apart, Alan realizes justice will demand far more than the law can give.

As violence erupts and enemies close in, Laurel and Alan must risk their lives—and their hearts—to expose the truth before it destroys them both.

A sweeping Christian Western romance about courage, sacrifice, and love that refuses to stay buried.

Book Four in the Iron and Ashes series—where frontier grit meets heartfelt faith.
