Produktbeschreibung
Two men possessed by their visions square off like Charolais bulls over who owns a Minnesota mineral spring. Dr. Robert Hartwell returns home from San Francisco driven to open a meditation center at the spring and finds the road to his property gated and closed. Justin Taylor claims the spring as part of his ranch when he bought it from a farmer who used Hartwell's land and got title by adverse possession. The farmer has since moved on and Hartwell's lawyer asks Boston Meade to find the farmer because the claim is a fraud. What starts as a small favor soon possesses Boston through weeks of dead-end interviews with neighbors who tell him little. In the details of everyday farming, he discovers that adverse possession hides something more dangerous than rutting bulls.

Autorenporträt
Newell Searle grew up on a southern Minnesota farm, and his writing includes a variety of pieces on Minnesota's history, culture and natural environment. Copy Desk Murders was his first novel in a mystery series set in southern Minnesota during the 1980s farm crisis, a period when he worked in agricultural organizations. After a vocational school education, he received a B.A. from Macalester College. His first book, Saving Quetico-Superior, was an award-winning narrative of wilderness protection. He continued writing while working as a public affairs professional in corporate, government and nonprofit organizations. Now he writes wherever he is, at his home in Minnetonka, volunteering in Mexico or at a forest cabin north of Lake Superior.
