Cypress Run

The Cypress Run Quartet: Book 1

Advance Reader Copy

Blurb

A city-cop-turned-sheriff in 1880s Florida tries to solve murders without being eaten by alligators.

A disgraced Chicago detective is exiled to an 1880s Florida swamp town where the factions competing for control are just as deadly as the alligators.

As the newly appointed sheriff of Cypress Run, Tom Bracken is out of his depth, caught between political tension, hidden agendas, and wildlife that doesn’t care about the law.

When bodies begin to surface, solving the mystery may be the only way to survive it.

Cypress Run is a character-driven historical mystery set in an atmospheric Florida swamp town, featuring a fish-out-of-water sheriff, political tension, and a slow-burn romance.

Author

T. N. Daigle writes historical mysteries set in Florida’s wild frontier. Her debut novel, Cypress Run, follows a disgraced Chicago detective exiled to a swamp town where the alligators, politics, and secrets are all equally dangerous. Her love of westerns and immersive storytelling began on Saturday mornings spent alternating between watching John Wayne movies with her dad and raiding his library for Tolkien novels and Dick Francis mysteries.

Born and raised on the outskirts of the SeaTac area of western Washington, she has a healthy appreciation for moody weather and the use of dark chocolate and coffee as coping mechanisms for whatever life throws her way. As an Air Force veteran and military spouse, Tanya has hopscotched across the world before finally transplanting to the Gulf Coast side of Tampa Bay.

When she isn’t writing or wandering around local parks trying to spot the swamp puppies, she can usually be found lost in the 900s section of her local library.
