Hogan is hired to guard Odyssey’s pictures for her first art show in the same old hotel.

once-in-a-lifetime destination will recognize the mountains, valleys, rivers,
and the twists and turns of Trailridge as this story races to its climax.In
The Homeplace, a schoolboy hero returns after sixteen years to solve a murder
in a windswept, dying town on the eastern plains of Colorado. In his short
story Belthanger, readers are given a glimpse of a 1950s small town, soon to
be bypassed by the new Interstate Highway System, and the drama that unfolds
on the town’s darkened streets one night. The BootHeel is a
coming-of-age tale of a teenage orphan and an aging gunman as they follow a
treasure map into Mexico as the nineteenth century draws to its end.
