Synopsis

The truth takes a detour in this cozy camping whodunit set in the beautiful New Mexico wilderness—first in the Black Horse Campground Mystery series.

The Black Horse Campground, outside of Bonney, New Mexico, has been in Corrie Black's family for years. But since her father's death, she's been running it alone—along with her trusted employees and an eccentric group of year-rounders and regular visitors.

In between spring break and summer is usually a downtime for Corrie and the campground, even with Bike Rally Weekend on the horizon. This April, however, peace and quiet are not an option. A disconcertingly attractive biker arrives, who arouses the suspicions of Corrie's childhood friend and one-time ex, Sheriff Rick Sutton. Then, one of Corrie's favorite guests is shot dead in his own RV, leaving his wheelchair-bound wife in the care of a son whom no one knew existed.

And though Corrie is warned by Rick to stay out of his investigation, she can't sit by while her home and friends are threatened. And no one is more surprised than Corrie when she discovers that her little piece of paradise is brimming with secrets and scandals that put a gun in the hands of a most unlikely killer . . .

About Amy Bennett

Amy M. Bennett was born and raised in El Paso, Texas. She is a 1985 graduate of Father Yermo High School and attended the University of Texas-El Paso. In 1988, she married her husband, Paul, and moved to Alamogordo, New Mexico, where she attended New Mexico State University-Alamogordo, and, except for a six-month stint in Mt. Kisco, New York, has been a resident of New Mexico ever since.

She currently works as a cake decorator with Walmart in Alamogordo, New Mexico, after twelve years in the Ruidoso Downs store (this is her nineteenth year with Walmart) and a "vino slinger" with Noisy Water Winery in Ruidoso, New Mexico, for the last six years. She has been a "closet" novelist for over twenty years and has an impressive collection of rejection letters to show for it! End of the Road started as a project for National Novel Writing Month in 2009; it won the Oak Tree Press 2012 Dark Oak Mystery contest. Her first and second books in the series, End of the Road and No Lifeguard on Duty, were both awarded The Catholic Writers Guild Seal of Approval.

She and Paul currently reside in Bent, New Mexico, with their son, Paul Michael, who grew up believing that having a mother who writes mystery novels is normal.
