What happens when a small resort community in the Rockies suddenly becomes a lure for Hollywood stars and the tourists who come to gawk at them? In Tenoclock, Colorado, the town fathers became conscious of image, so they named Johnelle "Johnnie" Baker sheriff. Then, they did everything they could to keep her from doing her job. But in a one-week period, an African lion walked down Main Street, a fire razed the courthouse annex, killing a watchman and destroying virtually all of the county's documents and land records, some south-end sheepmen swore they felt the earth tremble in the night, and a stranger was found by the side of the road, killed by an antique arrow driven through his throat. And when a man wearing flippers and a wetsuit stopped outside the bar, Tenoclock's leaders knew image was the least of their problems.

Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book First edition, first printing with complete number line beginning with 1. A few pages were roughly opened at top else near fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. The town fathers name Johnnie sheriff, and then did everything they could to keep her from doing her job.."Unexpected events figure large in the second book set in Tenoclock, the Colorado resort town that Miles, writing as Arthur Williams, introduced in Missing at Tenoclock. It's been a bad spell for Sheriff Johnelle "Johnnie" Baker: an African lion walked down Main Street; arson destroyed the courthouse annex, killing the watchman; an unusual tremor shook the earth south of town; a dead man was found with an antique Indian arrow through his neck; and a barroom brawl was broken up by a man in a wet suit and flippers. It's been so bad that folks are muttering about an ancient Anasazi curse. Johnny and her deputies, including former sheriff Butt Peabody, slowly find explanations for most things but must investigate carefully since the town bigwigs who appointed Johnny are worried about the effect of bad publicity on the ailing tourist industry and also have some secrets of their own to protect."--Publishers Weekly.
