Red, Green, or Murder?
by Steven F. Havill
If you have visited New Mexico, you have probably been asked the official state question: Red or Green? This of course refers to the type of chile sauce you want on your New Mexican food. Havill turns the state question into a mystery. Former Under-Sheriff Bill Gastner has retired and is now a state livestock inspector. Gastner witnesses a ranch accident and helps get the injured cowboy to the hospital. Later in the day another cowboy goes missing. The ranch's truck and trailer are traced to the border with Mexico. Thinking out of the box, Gastner rescues the injured missing cowboy. Saving two lives is all in a day's work for the former lawman. But Gastner misses lunch with an old friend. The old friend turns up dead at the lunch table. Was the death due to natural causes of something more sinister? Gastner sees that things just don't add up. Will he be able to solve this mystery?
