Stewball (The Montana Mysteries Featuring Gabriel Du Pré Book 12)

A murder investigation leads Du PrÃ© into the cutthroat world of illegal horse racing

Gabriel Du PrÃ©â€™s aunt Pauline has burned through more than her share of husbands, so itâ€™s no surprise when she shows up in Toussaint complaining that the latest one, Badger, has run off. Du PrÃ©, the fiddler and sometimes deputy, agrees to go looking for her man and finds him shot, execution-style, in the wilds of the Montana countryside. A chat with his contacts at the FBI reveals that Badger, a small-time drug smuggler, had been working for them since his last arrest. Paulineâ€™s husband was bait, but the big fish got away.
Â
The last lead was to a cabal of wealthy gamblers who pass their time racing horses in the barren Montana brush. To infiltrate their tight-knit syndicate, Du PrÃ© goes undercover, lining up his own horse and jockey. He must tread lightlyâ€”horses are not the only things these men shoot.
