On Potato Mountain: A Chilcotin Mystery

Bruce Fraser, lawyer and rancher, writes a thriller about love, honor and revenge that is set in the untamed Chilcotins. On Thanksgiving of '58, rancher Bordy Hanlon is gunned down in his living room. His adopted son, Noah, is charged with his murder. Stan Hewitt, an alcoholic lawyer from Williams Lake, defends the young man before a white jury and later before a Native circle of elders. On Potato Mountain is not only a tale of love and mystery, but is also a story of a remarkable land and its people.
