Evil Chasing Way (2017)
(Star Song, book 1)
Gerald Hausman
"If you’re hungry for a book to keep you up past bedtime‒with all the lights on‒this tale is for you. Based on real unsolved mysteries, Evil Chasing Way deals with startling animal deaths that some attribute to aliens, skinwalkers, secret government research or a force of true evil. This is New Mexico’s own X File anchored in Hausman’s elegant prose and finely tuned descriptions of the Southwestern landscape."
The Pot Thief Who Studied Edward Abbey (2018)
(Pot Thief, book 8)
J Michael Orenduff
"Smartly funny series."
As the Crow Dies (2020)
(Asheville Mystery, book 1)
Kenneth Butcher
"Beginning with a body face down in the river, As the Crow Dies flies from one unexpected development to another. A pair of unlikely detectives work to find a missing scientist and keep up with a case that threatens their lives and their sanity. Animals with super powers, street musicians, the U.S. president and first lady, and a roller derby matchup all add to the novel's strength and quirkiness. Few authors can combine murder and humor as well as Kenneth Butcher."
Death Waits in the Dark (2020)
(Arthur Nakai Mystery, book 2)
Mark Edward Langley
"Death Waits in the Dark tells a gritty story of betrayal, deceit, and danger through the eyes of Navajo protagonist Arthur Nakai. The tightly written noir plot moves from scene to scene like a thriller, building suspense in every page.'"
