Somewhat True Tales of Jackson Hole by Tim Sandlin

Twice each year for the nearly thirty years now Tim Sandlin has emerged for his shell to compose stories of the real Wyoming for the Jackson Hole Magazine. Tim and his cast from his strange yet sometimes lovable extended fantasy family argue, pontificate, love, and occasionally snark on the issues facing our beautiful valley. They love Jackson Hole as only a true family can love — quick to condemn, quick to forgive.

Somewhat True Tales of Jackson Hole is available at the Jackson Hole Book Trader, and Wilson Book Gallery.

Coldwater Revenge by James Ross

Bad things happen when a bioresearch research company on the verge of bankruptcy agrees to act as a conduit for anonymous shipments of vials, powders and Petri-dishes in exchange for quick cash. Trouble begins when a poxed corpse floats to the top of a nearby lake and an autopsy reveals it to be riddled with deadly toxin.

Coldwater Revenge is an atmospheric mystery/thriller that takes place during a ten day period in the Fall of 2002. The setting is a small upstate New York town with a centuries-long tradition of live and let live smuggling across the lake it shares with French Quebec. Murder suspects in a place turned inward by history and geography are of necessity friends, lovers and even family. The brother detectives of COLDWATER REVENGE face difficult moral choices when it appears the killer may be someone close to them. Especially when one begins to suspect the other and the catalyst is an ex-girlfriend they have in common.

Coldwater Revenge is available at the Jackson Hole Book Trader, Wilson Book Gallery, and bookshop.org.
