Wine@5: Mark Stevens & Jim Ament

Description

Mark Stevens
Allison Coil survived a traumatic incident in the big city and escaped to the Flat Tops Wilderness of western Colorado, where she found her healing spot. In the new mystery, Buried by the Roan, Allison becomes entangled in the controversy over energy development and proves again she will do whatever it takes to protect her home.

Jim Ament
Stripped to its essentials, "Waiting for Zoë" describes the bittersweet collision of the title character, a bright young
East Coast woman of prospects, and a prosperous Southern California businessman named Russ. Strangers on page one, the unlikely confederates follow separate paths of loss, pain and emotional desolation that intersect at a small town on the windswept Wyoming prairie. Individually and cooperatively, the two disparate personalities struggle to make peace with the misfortunes that have blighted their lives, and to find new paths leading out of the confusion and purposelessness that threaten to overwhelm them.
