Crosses to Bear

In this second book, Crosses to Bear, Macduff faces an attempt by someone to murder members of the Shuttle Gals, the small business of five women who move guides’ vehicles and trailers from the put-in location, downstream to where the boat will be taken out at the end of the day’s float. The attempt may have been by Victoria Montoya, sister of a Mexican drug cartel head, who was rebuffed by the Shuttle Gals. Or it may have been by a member of PARA―People for the Annihilation of Recreational Angling. Or the attempt may have been the action of coal or agricultural interests who wish to build a new high dam that would flood much of Paradise Valley.
