A BRUTAL MURDER, A HAUNTED LAWYER, AND A RAGING BATTLE OVER THE FUTURE OF A NATIONAL FOREST COMBINE IN A LETHAL MIX THAT THREATENS TO DEVASTATE A SMALL MONTANA COMMUNITY AND ANY NUMBER OF LIVES ALONG WITH IT...
Kalispell, Montana Attorney Dave Matthews is on a downhill slide, blaming himself for the recent death of one of his closest friends. He's drinking heavily and generally avoiding his responsibilities when the brother of another close friend, a mill worker named Steve Helstrom, is charged with the murder of a prominent environmentalist. Dave reluctantly agrees to defend Helstrom and suddenly finds himself thrust into a case in which the evidence appears heavily stacked against his client. He's also finds himself thrown in the middle of a raging battle over the future of Montana's national forests, and before it's over Dave's own future will be very much on the line as well.
"Crossroads is a deep dive into the kind of deadly conflict that a vast and beautiful landscape can produce. There's treachery in Thane's Big Sky country, and battle-worn lawyer Dave Matthews is determined to peel back the layers to reveal the always-elusive truth. An engrossing read!" - Gerry Boyle, author of Strawman and the Jack McMorrow mysteries.
Praise for the Works of James L. Thane

- Christine Carbo, Award-winning author of The Wild Inside
"Fatal Blow is a meticulous and engrossing procedural - from the perspective of both the dogged detective and the surprising, enterprising criminal." - Lou Berney, Edgar Award winning author of The Long and Faraway Gone
"Thane reads like Michael Connelly and his Phoenix is detailed." - Paul French, CrimeReads
"No Place to Die is a two-in-one treat, a convincing police procedural bolted to a nail-biter suspense novel. A good novel gives you real people in a real place, and James L. Thane delivers both with his skillfully drawn cops, victims and crooks in today's Phoenix." - Sam Reaves, Author of Mean Town Blues
"No Place To Die is an auspicious beginning to what I hope will become a series. Sean and Maggie make a great crime-solving team." - Barbara D'Amato, Author of Death of a Thousand Cuts
"An excellent debut..." - The Poisoned Pen Booknews
"An engaging police procedural that hooks the audience. ... Readers will relish James L. Thane's tense thriller." - The Mystery Gazette
