The Drifter’s Wheel

Fever Devilin Mysteries, book #5

When a deranged young man, toting a gun and claiming to be a hundred years old, shows up at Fever Devilin’s Blue Ridge Mountain cabin, the introspective folklorist offers him a seat?before calling his buddy, the sheriff. But the vagrant vanishes before the law arrives, only to turn up dead the next morning.

Surprisingly, when Fever arrives to identify the body, it is not his ranting visitor — but a stranger wearing the man’s clothes.
