Excerpt from Avalanche, a Coyote Canyon Mystery

 When the law becomes the prime suspect, justice turns deadly.

When Sam arrived at his office, he walked in and without saying a word, he went straight to the armory closet. He came back out with a .308 rifle and walked back through the room toward the rear door.

 

“Sam, don’t forget about the avalanche mitigation later this morning on Grizzly Mountain,” Deputy Mitch Hunter called out.

 

Sam stopped and turned back to the group of deputies sitting at their desks.“Do you all know your assigned spots to keep the public out of the runout zone?”

 

They all responded that they did.

 

Sam looked at his watch. “You should get going then.”

 

“Where are you going with that rifle?” Sergeant Emma Long asked.

 

He paused before replying. “I’m taking it to a gunsmith in Livingston to get the firing pin repaired.”

 

“The firing pin needs fixed?” Mitch asked.

 

Sam ignored his deputy and went out the door.

Avalanche

 The day is finally here! The next book in the Coyote Canyon Mystery Series, Avalanche, is now available. This book follows Exposure, the first book in the series. I think Avalanche is the most thrilling book I've written to date and I hope you enjoy it. Purchase link at the end of this post. As always, I would really appreciate a review or rating on Amazon or Goodreads.

 

In the breathtaking yet unforgiving mountains of Colorado, danger doesn’t always come from the snow.

 

  

 

When a routine avalanche mitigation turns deadly, the fatal skiing victim is identified as Todd Radford, a man with ties that hit far too close to home for Sheriff Sam Winslow as Todd is the ex-husband of Sam’s former girlfriend, Millie Parker. As suspicion mounts, circumstantial evidence begins to paint a damning picture of Sam as the killer. With no solid alibi and pressure from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation closing in, Sam is arrested and stripped of his badge. 

 

Cut off from the investigation he once would have led, Sam can only watch as his world unravels. His loyal deputies, convinced of his innocence, risk everything to uncover the truth to clear their sheriff’s name before time runs out. 

 

But not everyone believes Sam is innocent. Tristan Radford, Todd’s younger brother, relentless in his pursuit of justice and vengeance, is convinced Sam had every reason to eliminate his rival for Millie’s love.
