Ten feet away, half-hidden in the bluestem grass, sits an old Winchester rifle with the initials T. M. carved into the stock. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe rifle belongs to Tap Miller. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor four years Tap has built a quiet life in the Texas Panhandle. A wife. A son. A small house at the south end of his brother-in-law's spread. The war and the killings behind him. The cell door slamming shut in Mobeetie ends all of that in a single afternoon. The evidence is on the ground. The town has been fed a year of poisoned talk by a cattle baron in Amarillo who has not forgotten the trouble of last year, and half the county is already convinced that Tap Miller is exactly the kind of man the rope was made for. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis time he cannot ride. This time he cannot draw. This time he must sit on his own porch and trust his wife Helen, his half-broken brother-in-law Robert, and a half-drunk Tascosa lawyer named Eli Carver to find the truth before a jury finds him guilty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe dead man came from Denver carrying a twenty-year-old picture of a girl in a dark dress. The picture leads to a parsonage. The parsonage leads to a name the Blossom family has not spoken aloud in twelve years. And somewhere in Mobeetie, behind a face Tap has never looked at twice, walks the man who fired the shot, and the wealthy enemy whose paper trail is wrapped around it like wire. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e**The fifth Tap Miller novel. A murder mystery in the western frame, and the slow unraveling of a secret that runs deeper into Blossom Ranch than anyone left living dares to remember.**\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Perry Comer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798199044172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/28\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.32d","brand":"Perry Comer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48852915781887,"sku":"9798199044172","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-accused-perry-comer-9798199044172","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
