"An Excellent Start"
This was my first Havill. It will not be the last.
The plot was intelligent and well developed, the characters were real and likable, especially the crotchety under-sheriff hero. After the last mystery I read, I particularly appreciated the detective heroes not making a series of stupid mistakes (just that big one at the end).
The novel is fairly short, at only 7 1/2 hours, and the body count was a little high for my taste, but I listened to it in one sitting, unusual for me, as the story held me all day. I'm already looking forward to the next one.6 of 6 people found this review helpful -

"Really fun read"
Love the narration and dry, small town banter. You have to suspend your disbelief a wee bit but it's totally worth it. I found myself wanting to meet Undersheriff Bill Gastner...!

"A Believable Mystery Series!"
I've fallen for crusty old undersheriff Bill Gastner. Author Steven Havill has done a marvelous job of developing a believable and intruiging set of characters living in Posadas County New Mexico, and reader Rusty Nelson's voice perfectly embodies the gritty, gravelly sheriff who lives for his job. I'm working my way through the series and enjoying every opportunity to know the folks of Posadas a little better.

"I can see Ole Bill"
Would you consider the audio edition of Heartshot to be better than the print version?Yes I think it may well be, as Rusty gives a brilliant believable performance
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?No I don't think its that kind of book
What about Rusty Nelson’s performance did you like?The voice exactly matches the character and the attitudes he adopts.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?Thats not my type of listen-- however I couldn't wait to go walking the following day.
Any additional comments?Only that I have already bought No 2 in the series. Is that testament enough ?

"As a pilot, a little hard to swallow"
Any additional comments?An OK read. As a pilot though, the fact that our hero didn't follow the advice of the controller and land at the larger, better equipped airport, was a wee bit hard to swallow.
