Book description
Bill Gastner, Undersheriff of Posadas County, knows ancient Anna
Hocking didn't fall down her fruit cellar stairs by accident. He's also
sure that elderly Reuben Fuentes knows nothing about the bodies
scattered on his dusty, southern New Mexico ranch. No spring chicken
himself, Bill summons his former deputy, Reuben's niece, from Mexico to
help clear the old man of suspicion. Eventually this generation-spanning
law enforcement team finds a thread tying all the crimes together--a
killer with no conscience Steven F. Havill lives with his wife of more
than forty years, Kathleen, in Ratón, New Mexico. He is the author of
more than twenty novels set in the American west, taught secondary
schools for 25 years, and recently earned an AAS degree in gunsmithing.
