About this book
When a county employee is found shot to death in sun-drenched daylight while sitting in his county road grader Undersheriff Bill Gastner is faced with puzzling questions. The simplest explanationthat an errant bullet from a careless target shooters rifle blew out Larry Zipolis brainsis soon discarded as inconsistencies surface. The fatal bullet shows no rifling marks and investigation reveals that the shooter walked directly toward the road grader in full view of the victimwho did nothing to defend himself. In addition to the demands of the investigation Gastner learns that Sheriff Eduardo Salcido has hired a new deputy without discussing the matter with his undersheriff. And Gastner learns that the new hire is destined to be the first female road patrol deputy in the history of Posadas County. Thus begins Gastners relationship with Estelle Reyes whose shrewd observations shed important light on a crime that rattles all kinds of skeletons lurking in Posadas County closets.
