Om den här e-boken
A New Mexico border town reckons with a shocking shooting and a dead developer in the “consistently excellent” police procedural series (Booklist).
When a developer shows up in Posadas County, the locals get nervous. The small town along the southern border of New Mexico has enjoyed a surge in visitors, jobs, and prosperity since rancher Miles Waddell opened an eco-friendly complex. But then the developer buys land just next door, with plans for a project that will threaten the county’s newfound success.
Tension is at an all-time high when someone shoots up the newsroom—and then the developer is found dead at the base of a cliff. Sheriff Bob Torrez and Undersheriff Estelle Reyes-Guzman know these bloody events are all too convenient not to be connected.
With support from Bill Gastner—an old Western sheriff straight out of the movies—the partners dive into a heated investigation. But as the case gets personal, the two will have to untangle a web of convoluted evidence before the community turns on itself . . .
“The Posadas County that Havill has created is so tangible, you feel that if you walked down its streets, you would be greeted by old friends.” —Bookreporter
“Less Than A Moment reveals Posadas’ sense of small-town life through the conversations of multiple characters and by rolling them into the narrative, whether they’re related or unrelated to the crimes.” —Albuquerque Journal
“If you haven’t yet discovered these wonderful mysteries, you are in for a treat!” —Anne Hillerman, New York Times-bestselling author of Lost Birds
“Mystery fans who haven’t yet made the trip to Posadas County, consider yourself deprived.” —Kirkus Reviews
