Concho Diamonds

Concho Diamonds is a rich tapestry of 44 captivating short stories set in the late 1800s, each offering a unique glimpse into the lives of those navigating the rugged terrain of West Texas. From the resilience of Black soldiers at Camp Charlotte to the whimsical adventures of a child scheming to avoid chores, this collection shines a light on the diverse characters who forged their paths in the face of adversity, prejudice, and the forces of nature.

Follow Bram, a Buffalo Soldier with a sharp wit, as he builds roads under the unforgiving Texas sun. Join Juanita and Olga as they mend their friendship through secrets shared over tortillas by the fire.
