Palouse (Ben Blue, #10)

Ben finds himself on a horse buying trip to Wyoming with Mike Flynn. Trouble is standing at the bar in a Cheyenne saloon, and Mike walks right into it. Things don’t get any better on the next leg of the journey, when a foreign dignitary believes his position in court places him above common courtesy and the law.
Ben and the Baron are both eager to buy the same breeding stock from a man who has taken on the mantle of rebuilding the war depleted Nez Perce appaloosa herds. The breeder has strict rules and believes that money doesn’t necessarily produce character.
A man who won’t accept no for an answer can stir up plenty of trouble, but an old friend shows up to lend a needed hand. And there’s a new friend, with a long buried secret, who claims a special place in Ben Blue’s life.
