Dark Green

By Lif Strand

Mangas County has a wolf problem. That's why Special Deputy Jessie Torres spends her days examining wolf-killed livestock and pets in the rugged backcountry of western New Mexico. But lately what Jessie is seeing doesn't make sense: too many kills, too much blood, and more wolves at the kills than are in any local pack. As the county fills for a long July 4th weekend and the sheriff buries a suspicious death, Jessie juggles wilderness work, human chaos, and the demands of her Apache curandera grandmother. Dark Green is book one in the Mangas County Mysteries series.
