by Mark Reps
Genre: United States | Mystery
A priest is killed in an apparent suicide in a rocking chair on the highway at the foot of Mount Graham. Meanwhile, Sheriff Zeb Hanks and Jake Dablo investigate potentially unscrupulous land deals occurring on the mountain. The team must unravel the complex weave of sacred holy places, land rights, and the ever increasing body count which means big time trouble for the small town sheriff. Who owns what is traditionally considered sacred? Holes in the Sky, the second in the series Zeb Hanks: Small Town Sheriff Big Time Trouble explores these questions in a clash of cultures mixed with mysterious deaths. The story is a fictionalized tale set in a real place (Mount Graham, Safford, Arizona) around a real event (a joint venture involving the Vatican, University of Arizona, the German Government, Max Planck Institute and the United States Government) in the building of a telescope on sacred Apache land using eminent domain. “The action took off on the first page and never slowed down. Just an altogether enjoyable read from cover to cover.” — Reader
