Gabriel Du Pre is a Montana cattle-brand inspector, fiddler, tracker, and reluctant sleuth. Thunder Horse begins with an earthquake that derails a Japanese corporation's plan to develop a trout farm on Montana land - and reveals the ancient burial ground of a long-dead people. Soon, a more recent body turns up: a snowmobiler shot in the back, carrying a large fossil tooth. A local archaeologist says it's from a Tyrannosaurus Rex - and reminds Du Pre that only four complete T. Rex skeletons have ever been located. How much would one be worth? Before Du Pre finds the answer to that question, his own life is threatened and tensions between developers and residents nearly destroy a rural Montana community.
