Steve Hockensmith

Steve Hockensmith's first novel, the mystery/Western hybrid "Holmes on the Range," was a finalist for the Edgar, Shamus, Anthony and Dilys awards. He went on to write several sequels (with more on the way!) as well as two action-packed spin-offs about the operatives of the A.A. Western Detective Agency. He's also written three novels in the Tarot Mystery series, about a reformed con woman-turned-Arizona fortune teller. And somewhere along the way he found time to write books for kids, zombie novels, and dozens of mystery, Western, and suspense short stories.
