Looking for Godfrey — Erin O'Quinn

Shawn Murphy, a Nevada game warden, is a different kind of cop. With more than 10,000 miles of wilderness to serve and protect, he’s put a lot of miles on his F250 truck in the pursuit of poachers, arsonists, freewheeling miscreants and others. But when he meets a falconer named Dylan Morgan, he discovers how hard it can be to enforce the law.Dylan’s a poacher, a wild-eyed falconer who’s lost his bird to the scorching blue skies of the Paiute Range. It should be easy for Shawn to fine the man and let him go…but he’s wounded and needs his help. To make the situation a little more complicated, Dylan’s also a gay man needing more than a bandage on his foot.Hours after meeting Dylan, Shawn encounters a different kind of poacher—a violent man with murder on his mind who leaves him to the mercy of the parched wilderness.After leaving the ICU and in spite of the odds, he goes in search of a man who’s already tried to kill him, one who’s slaughtering bighorn sheep to sell their horns. Dylan, pining for his trained bird Godfrey, joins the hunt, hoping for a sign of his vanished falcon. On a quest into Nevada’s harsh wilderness, both men find something else—something without a name they’ve both been looking for all their lives.
