“expertly weaves murder and motives that will keep you guessing until the very end.”
“From the first page I was hooked. I just loved it!”
“This book is a page turner right to the last word.”
““I could not put this book down.””
A grisly murder shatters the tranquility of a small Montana town.
Arriving early one morning to open for business, the baker’s wife walks into a bloody scene, a body, and a missing husband. Later that afternoon, a beloved town patriarch and sapphire dealer is found hanging from the balcony in his historic mansion. On first observation, it looks like suicide. An autopsy points to murder. Further investigation reveals the victim’s inventory of valuable sapphires is missing. Are the two deaths related?
An invasion of Russian Mafia thugs and a string of threatening notes complicate matters. Sheriff Peter Elliott and his crew, more familiar with wayward cows and drunken brawls, dust off their investigative skills and hurry to solve the case before more town folk fall victim.
Young women have gone missing and unmissed, until the wrong one disappears.
The tranquility of tiny Anderson Montana is once again shattered when pampered Stacey Nichols disappears after a quarrel with her boyfriend.
Clues are few and flimsy, but newly hired deputy, Birdie Bradshaw, has more than a professional interest in the case. Digging through old records, she uncovers evidence of similar disappearances going back decades.
While a battered Stacey plots ways to escape her abusive abductor, Anderson deputies struggle to unravel the mystery of her disappearance.
Sheriff Peter Elliott faces a ticking clock, self-doubt, and bad press in his race to find Stacey before it’s too late.
One murdered, one missing, and an entire town full of suspects.
Scrappers find the body of a much-despised junk man, covered in grass clippings and a rogue kiddie pool, at the local dump. In the process of the murder investigation, Sheriff Peter Elliott discovers the residents of Stone County, Montana are hiding a shameful secret.
An antique serving fork points the way to a world of greed and betrayal. Nothing is off the table, including the murder of Peter and his deputies and the team risks losing one of their own as they get closer to the truth.
