Reviews
"Du Pr joins a select group including Sherlock Holmes, Nero Wolfe, and Dave Robicheaux." --Edgar Award finalist William Hjortsberg "Wonderfully sly . . . Bowen plays his language the way Du Pr plays violin: plaintive, humorous, wild, the sounds of the sentences as meaningful as the story." -- The Washington Post Book World "Intriguing . . . Original and compelling." -- Rocky Mountain News "Bowen's writing is lean and full of mordant observations. His hardy characters . . . come to life, and his wry humor provides relief from the haunting, wind-bitten cattle-ranch landscape." -- Publishers Weekly, "Du Pré joins a select group including Sherlock Holmes, Nero Wolfe, and Dave Robicheaux." --Edgar Award finalist William Hjortsberg "Wonderfully sly . . .

Synopsis
A half-Indian, half-French deputy with "a shrewd mind and wry sense of humor" investigates a case of homicide on the range ( The New York Times Book Review ). Two men have been cutting fences at the ranches of Toussaint, Montana, loosing thousands of dollars' worth of cattle to use as target practice for their .22 rifles. Are they thieves? Pranksters? Local cattle inspector and sometime deputy Gabriel Du Pré guesses they're environmentalists, agitating for the reintroduction of native wolves to Montana's high plains. Du Pré knows the perpetrators are trying to send a message to the ranchers of eastern Montana--he also has a hunch they're already dead. When the activists are indeed found shot to death, Du Pré must figure out who used them for target practice. The FBI descends, but their agents are as clueless in this territory as the hapless victims were. Clearly, one of Toussaint's citizens committed this crime, killing to protect the traditional way of ranching life, a loyalty Du Pré shares. But if anyone's going to arrest his people, it will be the cattle inspector himself . . . Wolf, No Wolf is the third in "a wonderfully eclectic and enjoyable series of interest to western crime readers, especially those favoring Montana authors C. J. Box, Craig Johnson, and Keith McCafferty as well as fans of the Hillermans" ( Booklist). Wolf, No Wolf is the 3rd book in The Montana Mysteries Featuring Gabriel Du Pré series, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order., A half-Indian, half-French deputy with "a shrewd mind and wry sense of humor" investigates a case of homicide on the range ( The New York Times Book Review ).

- e***u (283)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
- e***n (392)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, JoeDrumsville!: The Evolution of the New Orleans Beat by Robert Cataliotti: Used (Nr. 405155037686)
- a***a (419)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThis 2DVD set is in perfect condition. Cover art and case like new. Both DVDs played with no flaws. Description was listed as “Good”; I would describe it as “Very Good”, basically Like New. Delivery was super fast and packaging was excellent. The DVD case was wrapped well, then put in a cardboard envelope that was sturdy and hard to open (this is NOT a negative!). I have purchased from this company a few times and have always been very satisfied. Prices are great.
