Mammoth Drop

Geologist Kea Wright and her team of scientists travel the world, diving into fiery volcanoes or excavating mammoth bones in search of understanding Earth’s mysteries, but often find murder instead…

Kea is invited to the Black Hills by her mentor, Dr. Harry Campbell, to explore Mammoth Drop, a paleontological discovery of mammoth proportions. She takes up residence with the other workers nearby Woolly Hole, a luxurious gay campground filled with boozing drag queens and bottomless mimosas. However, the joyous opening of the new park takes a dark turn when Harry is found brutally murdered in the caverns.

Determined to unmask the killer, Kea teams up with her old friend Carter and his partner Leo to solve the crime. They soon find themselves trapped hundreds of feet underground, knee-deep in mammoth bones and potential suspects.

As the bodies begin to pile up, Kea must find the killer before she is the next victim.
