Title: The Great West Detective Agency
Description: "On the run from some sore poker losers, gambler Lucas Stanton ducks into an office housing the "Great West Detective Agency"--Followed by a client who mistakes him for a sleuth. Amanda Baldridge lives in one of Denver's more well-to-do neighborhoods, and someone has snatched Tovarich, her Russian wolfhound puppy. Unable to resolve this case of mistaken identity--and unwilling to refuse the up-front cash from such a lovely patron--Lucas agrees to find the purloined pooch. But what he believes to be easy earnings for an absurd request becomes a riskier proposition when Lucas finds himself in the crosshairs of the wealthy and powerful Jubal Dunbar, who has already set his sights on Colorado's governorship--and on the missing mongrel"--
