 SUPERIOR
POSITION
By Evan McNamara
Former
Army sniper Bill Tatum likes his new job. As Deputy
Sheriff of Mineral County, Colorado, he gets to ride
a horse and wear a cool hat, but he never expected
to find a dead woman in the hills behind his cabin.
Tatum never expected to find himself on the wrong
side of the crosshairs, either. The woman with the
bullet hole in her temple was a reporter from the
Rocky Mountain News, and her journal brings to life
the big-city intrigue simmering in his small mountain
town, but it brings him no closer to her murderer.
The dead woman's shorthand reveals secret affairs,
political corruption, and a pending environmental
disaster, but Tatum has little time to ponder motive,
because the bullets are flying. No one is safe from
the deadly accurate vengeance of a well-placed rifle
bullet. As Tatum muddles through the deception and
lies in his once-innocent alpine village, the sniper
stays one step ahead of him, killing mercilessly,
then disappearing into the Colorado wilderness, eliminating
carefully chosen targets with impunity. Tatum cannot
overcome the sniper's meticulous planning and penchant
for public assassinations. When his suspects fill
up the county morgue instead of the jail, Tatum realizes
he must fall back on his training as an Army sniper
to regain Superior Position and stop
the terror from the ridge above.
Evan
McNamara is a former Army officer and 82nd Airborne
paratrooper. He now works for a wireless communications
company in Kansas City, Missouri, where he lives with
his wife and daughter. Superior Position
is his first novel.
