But Not Fortuitous Bj Bourg

When Mechant Loup detective Clint Wolf stops a vehicle for reckless driving, he doesn't find a drunk driver or an irresponsible teenager inside. Instead, he discovers a distraught father in a desperate search for his missing sons. Upon learning the boys were overdue from a fishing trip in the swamps, Clint summons the assistance of trusted friend and skilled mantracker, Melvin Saltzman. During their search, Clint and Melvin locate one of the boys huddling near a pirogue in a private lake, but the other brother is nowhere to be found. Melvin begins tracking the teenager through the woods and soon locates a bloody shovel under a windthrown tree. Further on, he locates what appears to be a freshly dug grave--and things begin to go south from there. What they find when they unearth the grave sets Clint on a 1,800-mile journey to solve a murder case that wasn't meant to be solved. Whether or not he succeeds--or survives--will depend on a number of things, not the least of which might be a fortuitous event.
