Poacher's Moon — John D. Nesbitt

Well known author John D. Nesbitt, who has delivered more than 18 historic Western novels to eager readers, now turns his hand to a contemporary Western story that sets intriguing characters against a background of the wildlife and wild lands of Wyoming. Lifelong outdoorsman Wilf Kasmire, trying to find a way to make a living doing something he enjoys, decides that guiding hunters might just fit the bill. While he dislikes the condescending attitude of some of the out-of-staters who hire him, at least he's spending his time in the landscape he loves. When an offer comes from a Colorado man-who has recently bought one of the older ranches in the area-to guide some of his friends, Wilf agrees to take the job. But over the course of the next few days first one thing and then another doesn't seem to add up and even after the hunters leave town, Wilf finds himself caught in a web of deception and, in the end, murder. John Nesbitt knows hunting, knows Wyoming, knows the interplay of men in the field, and knows how to tell an authentic, warts-and-all story of the real outdoors.-C.J. Box, author of Open Season, Out of Range, and other Joe Pickett novels. The time is ripe for a good contemporary novel with a Western setting. -Loren D. Estleman, author of The Master Executioner, The Undertaker's Wife, and the Amos Walker mysteries. John Nesbitt's Poacher's Moon is a fresh new voice in the genre.-W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear, authors of People of the Moon and The First North Americans Series.
