Publisher Description: A Montana Mystery Featuring Gabriel Du Pr Montana, "the last best place" of the disappearing American West, is the setting of Peter Bowen's splendid first mystery novel in a series featuring Gabriel Du Pr . A cattle-brand inspector and occasional sheriff's deputy, Du Pr moves easily among the ranchers, cowboys, Native Americans, barflies, dreamers, and Eastern dudes who populate what's left of the frontier. In the desolate hills of the Fascelli family ranch, a skeleton has been discovered. The sheriff needs Du Pr 's long experience in Montana to identify the bones. What Du Pr finds leads him on a search through the history of a troubled family, a search that brings him closer to a secret from his own past. Along the way, Du Pr meets a range of interesting folk, some to his liking, some decidedly not. |
