Last Ditch (Caught Dead in Wyoming, Book 4)

Water Can Keep You Alive ...

A man in a wheelchair goes missing in rough country in the Big Horn Basin of Wyoming. Amateur sleuth Elizabeth "E.M." Danniher and KWMT-TV colleague Mike Paycik immediately join the search organized by local rancher Thomas Burrell. But soon they're on a search of a different kind -- a search for the truth. It takes them deep into the intricacies of the western community served by the Red Sail Ditch -- the irrigation system that could make a ranch viable or worthless. They find rivalries, cooperation, antagonisms, inter-dependencies, and motives for murder.

Or Get You Killed.
