Frank F. Fiore is no stranger to bending genres—or breaking expectations. With a catalog that includes techno-thrillers, sci-fi adventures, and action-packed historical fiction, Fiore has never been content to stay in one lane. And now, with the gripping release of Jonathan Smyth Cowboy Sleuth: The Case of the Screaming Tunnel, he’s riding into brand-new territory: the haunted heart of the Wild West.
But make no mistake—this isn’t your typical Western.
It’s part mystery, part ghost story, and all Fiore.
A Writer Who Doesn’t Follow Trails—He Makes His Own
For over two decades, Frank F. Fiore has built a reputation as a writer who thrives at the edge of genres. His thrillers dig into the future. His action novels dive into the past. And now, he’s taking readers into the mythic, mysterious middle ground of the American frontier.
Why? Because that’s where the best stories live—where justice isn’t guaranteed, legends refuse to die, and a single man can still make a difference.
In The Case of the Screaming Tunnel, Fiore introduces us to Jonathan Smyth, a cowboy detective with a sharp mind and an unshakable sense of justice. When a murder leads him into a legendary tunnel with a chilling past, Smyth must confront more than just a killer—he must face what the town refuses to believe.
Why Frank F. Fiore Wrote This Story
Frank didn’t write Jonathan Smyth Cowboy Sleuth just to spin another cowboy yarn. He wrote it to challenge the idea of what a Western could be. He wanted to blend genres—mystery, horror, folklore, and classic Americana—into something bold and unexpected.
In his own words, Fiore believes stories should do more than entertain—they should make you think, feel, and question what you know. His novels don’t offer easy answers. They explore big themes: justice, truth, fear, and the legacies we leave behind.
A Career of Creative Reinvention
From bestselling thrillers to speculative fiction, Fiore has never been afraid to reinvent himself—and Jonathan Smyth may be his most ambitious reinvention yet. With this new series, he’s not just writing books—he’s building a world that could span multiple installments, spinoffs, and even a streaming series (yes, it’s in the works).
Each story will follow Smyth and his partner Abbott as they chase justice across haunted towns, forgotten legends, and murder cases no one else dares touch.
Conclusion: The Author the West Didn’t Know It Needed
Frank F. Fiore didn’t grow up writing Westerns. He grew into them. And like his characters, he’s not afraid to step into the unknown.
With Jonathan Smyth Cowboy Sleuth, he’s proving once again that great stories aren’t confined to one genre—or one era. They’re found wherever there’s mystery, meaning, and a character brave enough to search for the truth.
So if you’re ready to experience a Western like you’ve never seen before—one filled with suspense, grit, and a haunting sense of justice—Frank F. Fiore is ready to take you there.
