No crime is forgiven, and no mistake overlooked in this new
addition to the critically acclaimed Posadas County Mystery
series… 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 events are all too
convenient and bloody 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. Readers of C. J. Box
and Anne Hillerman will be riveted by this female protagonist
thriller set in the rural, rugged Southwest. The newest of Steven
F. Havill's Western mysteries and thrillers will lead you down
trails of danger and deceit… But will one of these paths lead to
justice? "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
