Blown Away Under the Big Sky — John Holt

Biederbeck, Montana PI Ed Bouchee is asked by his friend Dirt Tidrow to quietly look into a series of strange, unexplained and savage deaths of three local fly fishermen on the Yellowstone. Who did this and how? Bouchee's investigation as he works working side by side with O'Keefe County sheriff Jim Qualls and friends of the PI in the small, high plains town courses along a trail of mayhem and planned violence that only escalates as time passes. Along the way he and his companion, a Springer spaniel known as The Dog, roam the rivers, empty prairies and mountain forests that is Bouchee's stomping grounds. Murder, psychotic behavior and dark danger follow the pair wherever they go trying to uncover the truth in this bizarre case. How all this swirls together is the essence of Blown Away Under the Big Sky, the second book in the Ed Bouchee Big Sky PI murder mystery series.
