Description:In the foothills of the desert mountains west of Smoke Tree, someone has murdered Caleb and Eunice Clovis. The victims were impoverished squatters living a subsistence life in a lean-to made of discarded lumber and cast off building materials. Who would want to kill them? And why? There seems to be no motive for the crime. Lieutenant Carlos Caballo, known throughout the Lower Colorado River Basin simply as “Horse,” is charged with solving the crime. A crime that might not have been discovered for months except for a minor twist of fate. As the commander of the Smoke Tree Substation of the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, Horse has other issues to deal with at the same time: a town divided by Highway 66 into haves and have-nots, where prejudice and anger simmer just beneath the surface; an incompetent and corrupt local police department; local politics; cattle rusting in the river bottom north of Smoke Tree; and the possibility his best young deputy is going to ask for a transfer. With the help of his friend Chemehuevi Joe, a mysterious, self-sufficient, and deadly Native American, Horse sets off on the trail of a killer who is not done killing in this fourth book of the Smoke Tree Series.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
