"Nelson Lane finds himself once again assisting local law enforcement in Wyoming. This time it's a tribal policeman enlisting the US marshal's help to find a girl who has gone missing from the Wind River reservation. It's a good excuse to take a break from playing messenger for banks foreclosing on errant ranchers, among other duties outside the scope of the job description. So, Nelson agrees, figuring the girl is just a runaway: an easy case to wrap up so he can get back to business at his favorite trout stream. First his search leads him to a local moonshiner--found murdered at his ranch. Soon Nelson suspects the killer must be one of the washed-up Chicago gangsters making their own moonshine in Wyoming, hoping to get back in the good graces of the bosses back home. At every turn, Nelson is thwarted by thugs out to kill him--including a crooked sheriff in the gangsters' pocket. When he finally uncovers the truth, that moonshine is just a front for what they're really trafficking in the commandeered barn housing the gangsters' still, it may be too late to save the missing Wind River girl from certain death-- if Nelson can even save himself" --

Autorenporträt
" C. M. Wendelboe entered the law enforcement profession when he was discharged from the Marines as the Vietnam war was winding down. In the 1970s he worked in South Dakota. He moved to Gillette, Wyoming, and found his niche, where he remained a sheriff's deputy for over twenty-five years. In addition, he was a longtime firearms instructor at the local college and within the community. During his thirty-eight-year career in law enforcement he had served successful stints as police chief, policy adviser, and other supervisory roles for several agencies. Yet he always has felt most proud of ""working the street"" in the Wild West. He was a patrol supervisor when he retired to pursue his true vocation as a fiction writer. C. M. Wendelboe now lives and writes in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Connect with C.M. Wendelboe: https: //www.spiritroadmysteries.com/ "
