Conroe?

Google gives John Conroe (author)

" Chris Gordon, a rookie cop in the Big Apple with an interesting sideline—hunting demons. But after rescuing a beautiful girl from a demonic attack, he finds life stranger than he ever thought possible"

I'm guessing that isnt it.

And there's a city in Texas??

Edit: Corner the market? That's the opposite of what you mean though...
