The debut novel--"a true thrill ride" ("Suspense" magazine)--in the
series featuring prosecutor-turned-Wyoming-fishing-guide Jake
Trent: "a twisting, turning, murderous tale that thriller readers
will love" ("New York Times" bestselling author Michael McGarrity).
It's early summer in Jackson, Wyoming, where former prosecutor Jake
Trent has left the law behind to pursue his dream: becoming a
fishing guide and opening a small bed-and-breakfast in the West.
Now three seemingly unrelated deaths have occurred in one
day--unheard of in the scenic valley of Jackson Hole--disrupting
Jake's idyllic new life.
A skier perishes in a freak late-season avalanche. A French couple
is discovered mutilated on a remote trail--presumably by a bear.
And on the Snake River, Jake stumbles across the body of an
expensively attired fisherman. Meanwhile, a series of small
earthquakes--not to mention a bitter dispute between land
developers and environmentalists--has left the townspeople uneasy.
Before long, the plausible explanations for each death dissolve.
Could there be a sinister connection among them? When fresh
evidence points to Jake as a suspect, he goes on the defensive. Is
someone out to frame him? Jake teams up with beautiful park ranger
Noelle Klimpton to get to the bottom of this series of disturbing
events. The trail leads right to the region's crown-jewel
attraction: Yellowstone. With "all the elements of a successful
thriller" ("Pittsburgh Post-Gazette"), "Death Canyon" features
"evocative Rocky Mountain themes, a spot-on sense of place,
brilliant fly-fishing scenes and characters you just want to root
for" ("New York Times "bestselling author C.J. Box).
