Nominated for a Shamus Award and a Barry Award, this is the story of cowgirl Trade Ellis—part Apache, part rancher, and all private eye. Unfortunately, there's not much call for investigators on horseback. But as her twenty-fifth high-school reunion approaches, someone starts thinning the ranks of the old cheerleading squad. Trade has enough suspects to fill a yearbook: the fading beauty, the rich girl, the loser, the nerd. And someone wants her to join the cheerleading squad—in the morgue. “The action moves briskly and is boosted by the motley cast of characters and [Sinclair] Browning’s inspired descriptions of the Southwest landscape up to the very end.”—Publishers Weekly

Crimeline

One man's sport is another man's murder.... Private eye Trade Ellis, part cowgirl, part Apache, has her hands full running her Arizona ranch. But when Victoria Carpenter, the famous romance writer, shows up with gruesome stories about repressed childhood memories, all going back over thirty years, Trade jumps at the chance to take the case. Victoria's flashbacks include her father's so-called Sporting Club and its not-so-innocent picnics, where the wives talked, the children played...and the husbands made a brutal sport of hate and death. She's convinced that her father and his hunting buddies were racist killers. But how do you investigate decades-old crimes? Especially with no bodies, no police reports, and the only accuser a woman who makes up stories for a living. When the threatening phone calls begin and a cross is set ablaze on Trade's ranch, it soon appears there will be at least two more bodies they won't have to dig out of the past-Victoria's and Trade's.

The Sporting Club (Trade Ellis)

Dying to earn her spurs... Even in sweltering June, there's plenty of work for Trade Ellis on her Arizona ranch, but right now her part-time P.I. practice is as dry as the desert -- until bull rider J. B. Calendar marries a candy heiress who's crazy to turn cowgirl. Abigail Van Thiessen, nipped and tucked into great shape, has thirty-two years -- and a few hundred million dollars -- on her husband. So when she meets her untimely death on a romantic horseback trip with her newlywed stud, the cops suspect foul play. And J.B. hires Trade to prove him innocent. While plenty of people stood to gain from Abby's death -- the ex-football-star preacher she bankrolled, a half brother with his own millions, and a topless dancer with a grudge, just for starters -- no suspect looks better than J.B., a boozing tomcatter who's lucky with the ladies. Until Trade learns about another murder in town the same night Abby died ... a development that may bring the investigation -- and Trade -- to the very deadest of ends.

Rode Hard, Put Away Dead (Trade Ellis)

Genre Fiction

ONE-WOMAN POSSE Part dirty-shirt cowgirl, part Apache, and part-time private eye, Arizona rancher Trade Ellis doesn’t have time to waste chasing down bad boys like Eddy Gallegos. And besides, finding the runaway teen in the middle of a blistering Tucson summer swarming with kids isn’t going to be easy. But Trade’s doing it anyway. She’s doing it for Eddy’s grandmother–a friend of a friend–and because she has this thing about justice. She believes in it. At first Trade figures Eddy is just a juvenile delinquent who broke out of a detention center with a couple of his compadres. But when her questions get answers the fragrance of cow pies, and one of his homeboys, a senator’s son, shows up dead, she realizes the barrio teen is actually running for his life. Hot on his tail are a team of crooked cops, a suspicious homeless kid on a bike, and maybe an X-rated movie producer. For a yet-to-be-discovered reason, a dangerous race is on, leading Trade down a deadly path of violence and scandal. And from the looks of things, if the good guys finish last, they finish dead....

Mystery

SEX, LIES, AND MURDERTrade Ellis's high-country Vaca Grande ranch is just a car ride away from a world that couldn't be more different—a city of flash and glitter, poverty and hurt. Trade is happy making her living with Brahman cattle, but an occasional P.I. case in Tucson offers her good cash, a little adventure, and sometimes a date or two. Now she's been hired by an artist whose specialty is creepy paintings of wounded dolls. And this case will offer a little too much of everything: too much sex, secrecy, and murder. Trade's client is the sister of a local news anchor who has gone missing—after getting inside information on the slaying of a musician with a hidden life in a sex cult. Soon Trade finds her way into one of the cult's underground orgies, a scene that shakes and stains her part-Apache soul. Suddenly, to find the missing woman, Trade Ellis must not only match wits with a savage criminal, she must duel with demons—the kind that haunt…the kind that hurt…the kind that kill.

This is an Authors Guild/BIP title. Please use Authors Guild/BIP specs. Author's bio: Sinclair Browning's first encounter with the story of Eskiminzin quickly grew to one of complete absorption as she recognized a story that needed to be told. Browing is also the author of the World War II novel, America's Best, and the Trade Ellis mystery series, including The Last Song Dogs and The Sporting Club. She also co-authored Lyons on Horses. Description: This is the story of Eskiminzin, peaceful chief of the Aravaipa Apache, who, along with his people, were betrayed in the infamous Camp Grant massacre of 1871. Eskiminzin later, with John Clum, established a model community of trust and self-determination on Arizona's San Carlos reservation.
