John “the Stranger” Brockman returns,
fighting for law and order in the American Old West


The American frontier was often a wild place where ruthless outlaws reigned supreme. However, as westward expansion continued, the settlers demanded law and order. Marshals and sheriffs were in high demand in some of the most lawless settlements as well as in the numerous mining camps that dotted the west.

For years, John Brockman was known simply as “the Stranger.” Stories circulated all over the West about his generosity, justice, and honor, as well as his skill with a Colt .45. Now a chief U.S. marshal in Colorado, John's adventures are far from over.

The romantic tale of John and Breanna Brockman continues amid a series of gunfights, fistfights, and showdowns. The Return of the Stranger Series promises explosive Western action, callous desperadoes, heroic lawmen, and strong family ties.

Well-known storyteller Al Lacy began writing Christian historical adventures more than sixteen years ago. His beloved wife, JoAnna, became his coauthor eleven years ago. While Al chronicles history and biblical truth from one heart-pounding novel to the next, JoAnna weaves in romantic elements and family values.

Together, they invite you to come along and experience a glimpse of the past—a time when outlaws and marshals rivaled each other and a place that evokes the simplicity of the Old West while revealing the complexity of human nature in light of eternal truth.
