Publisher's summary

When a 17-year-old track star turns up mangled and dead on the switchback road by the Crescent Hotel, his poker crew grows suspicious of one another. Ebur, a retired cowboy, finds himself in the middle of a once-trustworthy group who all knew and loved Brady.

Or did they?

And can he trust them if they think he killed the boy?

Covering the broad swatch of lifestyles and struggles in off-peak Eureka Springs, Wilderness asks hard questions about retired men and those who try to tame them.

Praise for Lancelot Schaubert

“Schaubert’s words have an immediacy, a potency, an intimacy that grab the reader by the collar and say, ‘Listen, this is important!’ Probing the bones and gristle of humanity, his subjects challenge, but also offer insights into redemption if only we will stop and pay attention.” (Erika Robuck, national best-selling author of Hemingway’s Girl)

“Loved this story because Lance wrote about people who don't get written about enough and he did it with humor, compassion, and heart.” (Brian Slatterly, author of Lost Everything and editor of the New Haven Review)

“I’m such a fan of Lance Schaubert's work. His unique view of things and his life wisdom enriches all he does. We're lucky to count him among our contributors.” (Therese Walsh, author of The Moon Sisters and editorial director of Writer Unboxed)

"Lancelot Schaubert exhibits his talents in many forms from poetic verse to lyrical prose to musical compositions, all the while infusing them with charisma, passion, and wit. A true creative, Schaubert is one to watch in the literary world." (Heather Webb, author of Rodin's Lover and Becoming Josephine)

This is a great mystery. There is a lot going on in a short time. Perfect to start on when you don't have a lot of time. There is still plenty of mystery. There having a poker game starting out and people keep getting killed. Everyone is a suspect. I highly recommend this book if you like short mystery. Theo Holland is the narriater. He did excellent he has a good voice for doing other people voices to. If my review was any help will you please click the helpful link. Thank you

Misplaced Desire

Mr. Shaubert has written a tightly paced mystery novella, superbly narrated by Theo Holland. A quite enjoyable listen in one sitting.
