A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Walter B. Frampton II, Esq., has never been a hunter like his forefathers or even his best friend, Drake Wingo. He'd rather be sipping sour mash whiskey and listening to Mozart. But when Drake and Cliff Dickens, another old friend, ask him along on a grouse-hunting trip, he decides to go. One ruffed grouse is already bagged when Walter and Drake hear three shots -- a distress signal -- from Cliff. The unthinkable has happened -- the fourth member of their group, a quiet, polite stranger who owns the land, has accidentally been shot and killed. But when the details don't quite add up, Walter begins to have his doubts: Was it and accident? Is his friend Cliff a muderer? As events begin to spin out of control, only Walter can find out what really happened that fateful day on the mountain ridge.
