Bloody Footprints

by Roy Simmons

Burneyville is a typical farming community in West Central Texas, where people for the most part mind their own business. . . Church on Sundays, dust devils, the routine of farming and livestock, and the occasional Sunday dinner at The Greasy Spoon. Ryan Masters and his good friend Sheriff "Gas" Gasteell, a transplanted full blood Navajo Indian, work together, along with the rest of the citizens, to keep Burneyville safe from dangerous felons. Or so they thought. Ryan is a civic-minded construction worker and licensed architect. Gas has definite thoughts concerning his and everyone else's ancestry, but does not flaunt it. But then. . . the calm of Burneyville is shattered forever with a serial killer on the loose. Can he be found and stopped? And who is the driver of the old green pickup that seems to follow the murders? A well-scripted courtroom drama creates an exciting finale to this unusual novel.
