Publisher's Synopsis
Published by CUSTOM BOOK PUBLICATIONS.......... Seven years ago, a killer dispensed old-fashioned Western justice at the end of a rope. Questions remain unanswered... Who murdered suspected cattle rustler Jack Hooker? Why does his death haunt this Wyoming community? Coming west to escape a troubled past as a big city detective, Nick DeNunzio hires on to stop the brutal string of cattle thefts and catch the modern-day rustlers. He discovers not just cows are being led to slaughter - and why is Hooker's attractive niece, their prime target? To catch the rustlers and stop the murders before he is the next victim, Nick must unearth Hooker's killer, confront his dark past ...and become a cattle thief himself. Delivers everything you expect from a first-rate mystery... characters who step off the pages, a suspense-filled plot, and a setting - the vast, empty landscape of Wyoming - to take your breath away. Nick DeNunzio is one of the savviest sleuths to come down the mystery trail in a while. Margaret Coel, author of Killing Custer.
