A Hog Killin’ Time - “T.N.T. For Two!”

Written by Brandon L. Joyner

When the sleepy town of Giddy-Up Gulch is shaken by a catastrophic mine collapse, Prudence Beaumont and Lucky Allman saddle up for a daring rescue. But as they descend into the dark, they uncover more than trapped miners—there’s sabotage afoot, and danger lurks at every turn. Above ground, betrayal brews as a seemingly righteous preacher reveals a sinister side, threatening to bury our heroes for good—literally. With time running out, Prudence and Lucky must outsmart explosions, outmaneuver traitors, and face their deepest fears to save the day. Will they emerge victorious, or will the mine—and the schemers—consume them? Saddle up for a wild ride filled with action, humor, and high-stakes heroics. Giddy-Up Gulch won’t be the same after this hog-killin’ time.

What secrets lie buried in the mine, and who’s really pulling the strings?
