The bones of the first Tyrannosaurus Rex ever discovered have been unearthed in Montana’s dusty cattle country, circa 1908. But Chinese American detective Chester Wong has another body to worry about—that of the paleontologist who discovered the fossil, shortly before his murder.
Hired by the daughter of a rancher who’s been accused of the crime, Wong and his protégé, Last Chance Lee, must solve the mystery piece together the truth from the corpse and clues that have been left behind—and survive on the harsh frontier of the turn-of-the-century West.
As a little boy growing up in a small fishing village in Scotland, Joseph A. West enjoyed many happy Saturday mornings at the local cinema in the company of Roy and Gene and Hoppy. His lifelong ambition was to become a cowboy, but he was sidetracked by a career in law enforcement and journalism. He now resides with his wife and daughter in Palm Beach, Florida, where he enjoys horse riding, cowboy action shooting, and studying Western history.
