Job Out West

Rune “Rigger” Arnesen and his crew of geological explorers gather for a straightforward job in Wilson Ranch County. Thump the earth to find what’s beneath the surface, as Rigger has done a thousand times in his long career.

But it is not straightforward. A woman’s body is found, and it’s obvious someone had a deadly problem with her. The crew’s trucks are sabotaged, and it seems someone has a problem with the job they came to do. Then, it appears that someone has a problem with the entire town and with the county sheriff’s department that enforces its law and order.

From straightforward to complications that reshape Rigger Arnesen’s life, a Job Out West, by Bruce James Wilkinson.
