A rattling good yarn. Rachel Porter has a mouth on her, as they say, and ... a very good traveling companion.

Book Description
Even Murder Is Bigger In TexasPrimates are being smuggled over the Mexican border, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agent Racheal Porter has a hot tip that they're hidden somewhere on the Happy Hunting Ranch. Bad enough that the game ranch provides rare antelopes, Indian deer, and African oryx for the rich to hunt. Now Rachel's sure the hidden illegal chimps are being used for a far more nefarious purpose than exotic target practice.But when a smuggler is murdered minutes before Rachel can get his insider information, and a mysterious thug comes gunning for her after she unearths enemy territory. For on the border, where coyotes roam and mountain lions prowl, the rule is kill or be killed, and Rachel's no longer a hunter-now she's become the prey.
