Waning Moon

From the Book Cover:
The greed and audacity of the Santa Fe Ring knows no bounds. How many good people will die in the effort to turn the tide of their relentless land-grabbing? In another tense showdown, this time in a courtroom, Jared Delaney faces off against the arrogant and malicious Bill Chapman and his hired killer, Daughtry. Sheriff Nathan Averill faces a crisis of confidence as his skills as a lawman wane with his advancing age, and then in the time of Cimarrón's greatest need, he vanishes. Right and wrong, honesty and justice...are these just empty words? Can the men and women of Cimarrón make one more stand? And even if they prevail, what will be left of their way of life as the world changes around them?

Waning Moon the third book of the trilogy: Rustler's Moon, Colorado Moon and Waning Moon.

About the Author:
Jim Jones lives in Albuquerque, NM. His first novel, Rustler's Moon, was a New Mexico Book Awards finalist in two categories, Best Historical Fiction and Best First Book. He is also an award-winning singer/songwriter of Western music. He was the Academy of Western Artists' 2008 Male Western Vocalist of the Year and his song, "The Cowboys of New Mexico," received the New Mexico Music Award for 2009 Western Song of the Year. He is a proud member of the Western Writers of America and the Western Music Association.

In addition, Jones is an avid fly fisherman, a fair to middling snow skier and he has been known to whisper at horses (they rarely whisper back). He is working  on several literacy projects for young people and believes the love of reading is one of the greatest gifts we can give our children.
