This trap is murder on more than your wallet...

Every summer afternoon the streets of downtown Jackson Hole shut down and the Wild West is real again as the oldest gunfight in the west plays out for gathered tourists. There’s no way in or out until after the shootout players have taken their bows and they’ve passed the hat for tips—the ultimate tourist trap.

Sadie Moose usually avoids town square in the height of tourist season, but when her dad asks her to stand in for a player out sick so he won’t miss his big debut as an outlaw, she begrudgingly dons the saloon girl costume. Things are going great until the stagecoach screeches onto the scene and the actor inside misses his cue. With a bit of improv, Sadie opens the door…and finds the actor dead inside.

Sadie isn’t planning on getting involved, no matter how curious she is, but then her dad is named as a suspect. To clear his name, she’ll infiltrate the local rodeo, skulk around the Jackson Hole Playhouse, and go from t-shirt shop to ice cream parlor on town square searching for the real killer. As she gets closer to an answer, she faces increasing threats from the killer and rising tension with Police Detective Will Nolan…both because she’s in the middle of his case yet again, and because he keeps threatening to take her on a date.

Can Sadie clear her dad’s name before she’s cut from the act?

Tourist Trap Murder is a not-so-cozy mystery and includes mature language and spice alongside the cozy setting, quirky characters, and mystery we all love in cozy mysteries. It's the fourth in the Jackson Hole Moose's Bakery Not So Cozy Mystery series. The books stand alone, but are better when read in order.
