What they are saying:
"You too should enjoy this engrossing mystery enriched by Smith's love of Colorado's natural beauty, and his ability to bring characters to
life."
~ Thomas "Doctor Colorado" Noel, University History Professor
and author of 41 books on the Highest State.
"G. Eldon Smith has fashioned a ripping good murder yarn about
justice in the Old West. His knowledge of Denver and its wild early years
shines through as he leads the reader on a merry chase through the
seamy underground of the Mile High City.
~ Dick Kreck, author of Hell on Wheels: Wicked Towns Along the
Union Pacific Railroad
"I found Murder in the Rockies to be engaging, informative about Colorado's colorful history, and laced with funny, true-to-the-times dialogue. Humor twinkles throughout, and the ending is satisfying and unexpected."
~Karen Gerdes, former professor of English and English as a Second Language at University of Denver
"The story was tightly woven with all the connections of the characters making sense. By the end of the book, all the loose ends were wrapped up. The book kept my interest until the end and beyond. I am anxiously awaiting the next installment in Andrew Coyle's experiences in Denver! "
