The ending maybe let me down a tiny bit, but the rest of this book was superb and even the ending was very good. His dialogue is full of smart one-liners and the narrator has a keen and wry perspective. The premise drew me in and there were twists and turns aplenty. I've read about a dozen mysteries recently and this is one of my two or three favorites.

Hopefully the proceeds from this book will go toward signing some players

I found this book to be an excellent resource! It has helped me find many companies in the Denver area that I would like to work for. I also really like the extra details that were provided with most of the companies' description -- like the types of positions they have, and common desired qualifications. It helped me narrow down my list of potential employers.

My only wish is that they update this book soon and release a new Edition! Yet, information from 1999 is still relevant today, for the most part.

Three government officials have been murdered and a Ute may have been killed on a remote part of Colorado. Jurisdiction seems to overlap between Federal, state, local, and tribal officials with everyone tripping over everyone else except the killer, who seems to have gotten away with murder. Denver homicide detective Gabe Wager has no jurisdiction so he is assigned to solve the case and end the bickering. ....... Gabe quickly realizes that he not only has to uncover a killer's identity, he has deal with all the various police authorities who have one thing in common: the desire to boss their compatriots. This leads to a lot of chiefs and one worker, Gabe. He soon realizes that there are plenty of motives and subsequently suspects. However, if Gabe does not identify the murderer soon, he will either go insane from the constant bureaucratic bickering or be killed by a murderer, who wants him out of the way. ...... Rex Burns is a great mystery writer, who always provides an intriguing and exciting novel. His latest book, THE LEANING LAND, is a fun read that refreshes Gabe Wager by placing him outside his element. The various law enforcement agencies add a Catch 22 comedic remedy to solving the mystery. Anyone who bets on reading this novel, will win their wager. ......Harriet Klausner

This is one of the best mountain biking books that I have ever read. I tested a few of the rides and found the descriptions to be accurate. I also enjoyed the sense of humor exhibited by the authors. Is that one of the Ryters on the cover? What a dashing figure!

This collection of essays provides a clear, thorough and very readable introduction to contemporary British politics. It explains why Labour (aka "New Labour") won the biggest majority in the British House of Commons since 1945, and offers some excellent insights into both the immediate future of the Conservative Party and the longterm development of British democracy.
