When former Reno, Nevada sheriff, Keenan Fitzpatrick, wins a free moose hunting trip to Newfoundland, Canada, he is happy to get away from his current job as a casino security officer. Shortly after arriving at the isolated hunting lodge forty miles from the nearest road, a man is shot to death. The other guests and guides immediately recruit Fitz to solve the murder. But without any technology to run background on all of the characters at the lodge, Fitz must rely only on his personal skills to uncover the killer. With six days before anyone from the outside world will learn anything is wrong at the lodge, Fitz must stop the killer before everyone is murdered.

Excellent mystery story with many of the changes that kept me guessing as to what would be next. Kept me interested and looking forward to reading further. Details were given when necessary to keep you involved and ample time between events kept you wondering where it would go next. Good read!
Great way to spend some time being entertained by an author who keeps creating books that I like to read. If you like a good mystery you can't go wrong here.
the retired Reno Nevada sheriff Fitz on a hunting trip to Newfoundland. The corpses mount and with no external connections or technology Fitz tries to uncover the killer. The problem is no one is scheduled to come to the lodge for 6 days....... Fitz is an interesting character so another book is anticipated.
This was a hunting trip that turned out to be a hunting trip in reverse. The group was very diverse based on their life styles. But the trip brought the right people together with an assumed good end.
