Carnosaur Crimes
Author: Christine Gentry
Publisher: Poisoned Pen Press
ISBN: 9781590581506
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
Montana paleoartist Ansel Phoenix, stunned by the incinerated body of the Indian blasted up into the mouth of her life-sized Allosaurus replica standing outside the Big Toe Natural History Museum, starts digging. Poachers have been cutting out fossil Carnosaur tracks along the Red Water River—an Indian poacher—and the Bureau of Land Management is threatening to close the museum and move the tracks inside an educational institution. And the FBI investigation of the man’s fatal accident, triggered by the explosion of a faulty valve on his propane-powered concrete saw, is freezing out the local cops. Who is the dead poacher? Clues point to a rodeo heritage. But a final answer will have to come from taking his head up to Billings for an attempt at facial reconstruction. Using her half-Blackfoot heritage as leverage, rancher’s daughter Ansel devises a dangerous scheme to help the Feds—is it the FBI? Or is it the BLM? Or some other agency?—expose a statewide ring of dinosaur thieves. But she didn’t count on complications with commercial dealers in fossils; it’s a big money market. Or starting a new romance, or the continuation of her “partnership” with local law officer Reid Dorbandt. Or being stalked by a deadly nemesis from her childhood.

Carnosaur
Author: Harry Adam Knight
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781954321724
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
It stood over six feet tall and was the color of dried blood. It was absurdly reminiscent of some giant plucked bird, like an ostrich-but it had the head of a reptile. The partly opened mouth revealed rows of curved, pointed teeth. It was a walking impossibility-a creature that had died out sixty-five million years ago-but it was alive. And it wasn't the only one. In a sleepy rural town, one man's dream had become everyone else's nightmare-and dinosaurs once more roamed the earth. First published in 1984, six years before Michael Crichton's Jurassic Park, Harry Adam Knight's Carnosaur is a gory dinosaur-filled romp sure to delight fans of '80s paperback horror fiction.
