About the Book

A GLOBAL EBOOK AWARD NOMINEE, this is the first book in the Sheriff Bud Blair Oregon mystery series...A suspicious death leads to an investigation, a manhunt, and the capture of the self-confessed killer. But when Sheriff Henry "Bud" Blair reads the autopsy report, he begins to suspect that someone other than his prisoner is the actual murderer. Set in Oregon's high desert country, Spider Silk introduces you to a compelling cast of characters and sets you on a fast-paced, page-turning adventure to find out who is behind a string of (seemingly) unrelated murders.Moving from the backdrop story of a remote ranch and a lonely widower to the dark and pervasive reach of organized crime, Spider Silk is not only intriguing... it's an entirely believable saga. Surprising forensic evidence and sharp detective work keep your interest level high and the suspense palpable in this police procedural cliffhanger.Spider Silk is also a love story.Badly burned by divorce, Bud Blair steers shy of women. But his work makes it almost impossible to avoid contact with Nancy Sixkiller, the beautiful Yakima Indian woman who manages the Emergency Services Center in Lake County, Oregon. That contact is intensified when Bud is injured and Nancy takes on the role of caregiver.When you dive into this gripping western fiction tale, you'll enter the sparsely settled, high desert landscape blessed with the hot springs, big lakes, and timbered mountains Collins knows and loves.
About the Author: Rod Collins grew up in a family nurtured by the oral storytelling tradition of rural America. Good storytellers (like his grandfather, Charlie Troop) were always welcome at the supper table or around the campfire. True to that tradition, Collins created his award-winning, contemporary detective mysteries series featuring Sheriff Bud Blair. Book #5, "Not Before Midnight," is well underway. Rod retired from the US Forest Service in the fall of 1999, and wrote his first book before the year was out. He says, "I'm eight books into the late-life writing career. I just keep on writing. It's an impulse that greets me each morning. And I love it. Stories are the meat of life." Another of Rod's books, "Bitter's Run," is a stand-alone historical novel set in 1865, immediately following the end of the Civil War. John Bitter plans a solo trip across the Oregon Trail to his farm on Abiqua Creek, but The Good Lord and the beautiful red-haired lass, Morgan Eagan, have other plans. Rod is also the author of "What Do I Do When I Get There? A New Manager's Guidebook." This little book (called a "gem" by one reviewer), was the 2007 winner of the Pinnacle Book Award. Rod loves to hear from his readers. Get in touch by leaving a comment on his blog at brightworkspress.com/blog. And... of course... your reviews are always welcome. You're the reason Rod keeps writing. Here's a note from one of Rod's readers: Some artists paint with a brush, Some with a camera, Some with music, However, the artists who paint with words can take you into a story as if you are there. Rod Collins is terrific with words, and I love his characters. I even found myself falling in love with Nancy Sixkiller... and she isn't even real. I'm a total fan of Rod Collins' writing, and I look forward to his next book. -- Ivan
