title: Notches: A Gabriel Du Pre Mystery
author:  Peter Bowen 
description: Relying on intuition as much as hard evidence, Gabriel Du Pr turns his trained eye on the trail of the monster, or monsters, responsible for a horrific string of murders in Montana. The initial clues are few, and identification is impossible because the victims--all young women--were discovered with their lower jaws and teeth removed. The case hits close to home when the daughter of Du Pr's lover, Madelaine, turns up missing. Working with G-man Harvey Wallace, Du Pr begins, almost unconsciously at first, to mirror the patterns of a serial killer in a desperate attempt to prevent another death, knowing too well that his descent into madness could have a profound and permanent effect. <i>Notches</i> is the fourth book in a series of Du Pr mysteries in which Peter Bowen infuses elements of Indian folklore into his sparse writing style to create deep characters who reveal much in few words.
