My new novel And the Hills Opened Up is now available in paperback and on Kindle!
Life in the small 1890 Wyoming mining town of Red Earth revolves around
plundering the copper seam and the weekly stagecoach that brings payroll
from the Dennison mining company. When opening a new section of the
mine frees a monster known only as "the Charred Man," everyone in the
town must choose how to make their stand, and who they'll protect. A
feverish foreman, an inexperienced sheriff, a widowed whore, and a
kindly outlaw are just some of the engrossing characters in Oppegaard's
page-turner. The narrative is subtle and lovely, contrasting with a
creepy, believable monster. The two combine in a story that's horrific,
thrilling, touching, and unflinchingly satisfying to the last page. -Publisher's Weekly (Starred Review)
