Nick Drake confronts a double-feature of murder and mysticism when Sheriff Pudge Warbler enlists him to catch a killer among the movie stars and film crew turning Harney County into a celluloid version of the Old West. At the same time, he runs afoul of a sinister gold mining company after finding an old prospector shot in the back. The stakes couldn’t be higher when the killers threaten Nick's wife and daughter, and it’s a fight to the finish or wind up buried like lost treasure.
Award-winning author Dwight Holing draws on his deeply rooted connection to the American West and understanding of the natural world to create a masterful story. With memorable characters and prose that crackles like the unforgiving setting, the suspense builds and drives "The Forgotten Feet" to a climax as powerful as a force of nature.
