Steven F. Havill lives with his wife of more than forty years, Kathleen, in Rat n, 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.
"""The action and suspense have been ratcheted up several notches here, but Havill's always-sensitive depictions of human relationships remain the backbone of the series. Successfully blending light and dark elements is the key for any crime author basing a series in ordinary life, and it looks as if Havill, by darkening the brew just a bit, has once again found the right shade."" - Booklist ""Havill takes the reader through an all-terrain investigation to an edge-of-your-seat finale."" - Publishers Weekly"
