About this series
When convicted drug runner Billy Bob States is temporarily released from prison as a part of a federal plea deal, little does Marshal Jack Mayfield know what's in store. During Billy Bob's brief furlough to his less-than-stately Southwest Iowa acreage, he discovers his wife, Sugar, is expecting a child. A goat-herding farmer who believes he's on the cutting-edge of sustainable farming with his unusual agricultural methods ends up being the key witness in an attempt on Billy Bob's life. Soon the search is on for more than one criminal on the loose, and murder visits the usually peaceful countryside.

1
The Iowa Farmer's Wife is a page-turning mystery about a murder that takes place in southwest Iowa. When a rural banker is brutally murdered, two DCI detectives travel to the scene of the crime to investigate. Little do these "city boys" know what their trip into the country will entail. The plot thickens as the investigation revolves around a young widow and her struggle to hold onto her farm.
- Second Chances
The Iowa Farmer is at it again with a sequel to his much-acclaimed The Iowa Farmer's Wife. Follow the adventures of a widowed farmwife trying to hang on to her livelihood and the burnt-out detective she has rescued from himself. An investigation ensues after a farmer is found buried in his own cornfield, and when a 12-year-old boy turns up as a witness, the local law enforcement has to move fast saving his life. This isn’t big city CSI, FBI, or CIA. It is an exciting and heart-warming story involving farm life, romance, and murder.
- 3 Little Pigs
Sometimes the rural life isn't as peaceful as one might expect. When Benjamin Willoughby takes the job as sheriff of a southern Iowa county, he finds himself dueling once again with his nemesis, Roydel Nuxton. In 3 Little Pigs, the third book in Bill Beaman's Iowa Farmer's Wife Trilogy, love, death, and even humor collide as people try to find their perfect place in life.

Bill Beaman
The Beamans own and operate a livestock and grain farm located in Southwest Iowa. Purchased in 1982, the farm has survived: the "Farm Crisis" of the Eighties, a 1986 bank failure, the 1988 drought, the floods of 1993, and too many other dilemmas to mention. Through it all, the Beaman family has maintained a sustainable farming operation, raising livestock using grass-based pasture production and a grain, legume crop rotation. Their farm, like all of Iowa's farms, has a million stories to tell. Bill Beaman loves to write and is passionate about sustainable farming operations and how they can become more accessible to new, young, beginning farmers.
