2011 Purple Dragonfly Book Award First Place in the Children's Chapter Book category! Jessie Scott, 12, hopes to enjoy time with new friends, Will and Allie, at Jessie's home in the remote Schafer Meadows Ranger Station within the Great Bear Wilderness of Montana. This sequel to the award-winning The Ghost of Schafer Meadows finds the three friends and Jessie's dog, Oriole, unwittingly hunting for whoever is poaching wildlife in the wilderness. People come and go—four backpackers, a lone horseman, and a lost single backpacker. Suspicion surrounds each of them as the three young friends and Oriole get pulled deeper into the mystery.
