Forty Feet West is the first book in the Boundary Man Series — quiet historical thrillers set in the American territorial West. Ward Colton is a land commissioner who investigates survey fraud: boundary lines adjusted by fractions of a chain, deeds corrected in ways that redirect water rights and strip productive farmland from settlers who trusted the record. The prose is measured, deliberate, and character-driven, with long investigative passages, period dialogue, and a methodical protagonist who works by reading documents and asking the right questions in the right order. The tone is calm and serious — no action sequences, no heightened dramatic climaxes, no comedy. Think P.I. novel crossed with quiet procedural, set in the 1880s American Southwest.
