Description
A dealer of ancient Native American pottery, Hubert Schuze has spent years combing the public lands of New Mexico, digging for artwork that would otherwise remain buried. According to the US government, Hubie is a thief—but no act of Congress could stop him from doing what he loves. For decades, Hubie has worn the title of pot thief proudly. Outright burglary, though, is another story.
But an offer of $25,000 to lift a rare pot from a local museum proves too tempting for Hubie to refuse. When he sees how tightly the relic is guarded, he changes his mind, but the pot goes missing anyway. Soon a federal agent suspects that Hubie is the culprit. After things take a turn for the serious, Hubie knows he must find the real thief quickly, or risk cracking something more fragile than any pot—his skull.

Winner of the 2007 Dark Oak Mystery Contest
“Fresh and witty, reminiscent of sparkling Thirties screwball comedies.” —Lou Allin, author of Man Corn Murders
“The Pot Thief Who Studied Pythagoras has
all the components of a great read—an intricate plot, quirky
characters, crackling dialog, and a surprise ending. What’s more,
Orenduff successfully captures the essence of New Mexico through humor,
romance, and even a little philosophical musing. New Mexico’s rich
history, people, food, and landscape come alive on its pages.” —Bill
Richardson, former governor of New Mexico
