An old flame is back. Will Nickerson wants nothing to do with her after having been jilted in favor of a multimillionaire. But now Mr. Moneybags is dead. Killed when he lost control of his small plane and slammed into a mountain somewhere in western Montana. Was it murder? Did someone tamper with the plane? The now-wealthy young widow Alison insists that it was indeed murder and that none other than Will must help her investigate it. Does she simply want to clear her name, as many locals believe she did it herself? Or does she have an ulterior motive? Does she want to rekindle that old flame with Will? Or what? Out of the blue, the North Dakotan receives a check from her for $50K and reluctantly heads west for his first paid job as a private eye and by far his most dangerous assignment yet. Mystery Under Montana Skies is a complex whodunit packed with adventure, romance, suspense and a bit of humor now and then, with the ambiance of a modern day Western set against the breathtaking beauty of Big Sky Country. The reader will see that the West is still very wild indeed.
