From Melanie Jackson, bestselling author of the Chloe Boston Mysteries, comes Wild East, the seventh book in the adventurous and offbeat Butterscotch Jones Canadian Cozy Mysteries.
Big oil is coming to McIntyre's Gulch.
And big oil means big trouble.
Life in the remote Canadian village is rarely quiet for long, but the latest disruption arrives with surveyors, maps, equipment, and a shocking announcement: a new oil pipeline is going in, and the proposed route could change the Gulch forever.
For a town used to misadventure, bad weather, oddball neighbors, and the occasional brush with danger, this is more than another inconvenience. The pipeline threatens land, livelihoods, local peace, and the fragile balance of a community that has always done things its own way.
Now it falls to Whiskey Jack to find another route before the project tears through the wrong place and brings even more chaos with it.
Meanwhile, Mountie Chuck Goodhead has problems of his own. Training a new recruit for outback duty is never easy, especially when the wilderness has its own rules, the locals have their own secrets, and danger has a habit of appearing where it is least expected.
As tensions rise, tempers flare, and outside interests push their way into McIntyre's Gulch, Butterscotch Jones finds herself caught in another mystery where money, power, land, and loyalty all collide.
In the Gulch, nothing stays simple for long.
With its blend of Canadian wilderness atmosphere, small-town humor, eccentric characters, environmental tension, Mountie mayhem, and cozy mystery suspense, Wild East is a lively installment for readers who enjoy clever heroines, rugged settings, and mysteries where progress comes with a body count.
A pipeline is coming.
The Gulch is in danger.
And Butterscotch Jones is about to learn that some people will do anything to get their way.
