About the Book

George Bosco has it good: a pension from the NYPD, a ranch nestled in the Black Hills, the perfect teaching position and the woman he has loved for as long as he can remember. And he's healthy - until he runs into Borden Cantrell, the Bully of Quickwater. Bosco is ambushed but he heals and is deputized to arrest Cantrell. The two meet at high noon on a hot summer day. Things get pear-shaped during that confrontation: Cantrell is killed, by one of the many people he has terrorized over the years, and Bosco now has to identify and arrest the killer. But no one is talking. Bosco's investigation uncovers secrets and intrigues in the lands of the Lakota, from the gaming industry in Deadwood to 'Greenie' activists to the private affairs of ranchers and townspeople of the Hills. It all comes crashing to an end during a dramatic denouement in an animal sanctuary.

His four supplemental readers were published by Houghton Mifflin in 2008, the same year Tumblar House released his non-fiction book about the founding of a private high school, "St. Joe's Remarkable Journey."
