Wait. I'm a grad student at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque. I'm a cranky old guy. Did you just, subtly, dis New Mexico? I plan to read the novel after the summer semester ends. You write really well.

James is on my reading list and I've moved it up the list a couple of times. I'll now add this to that list. I think everyone needs a fixer in their life and although I grew up on comics (72 years old) and live alone and I know how important a fixer is, especially one who doesn't cause collateral damage (unless that comes later in the story).

I just snagged a copy at my library. A very hot title, I was told at two libraries!

Boy could I use a fixer like that. Part of the reason the story so appeals to me, I think, is because of my mechanical ineptitude.
