Santa Fe Dead

Santa Fe Dead by Stuart Woods is not a Who Dune It as our mother classified all such books where the reader guesses who the murderer is right up until the last page.  In Santa Fe Dead the reader knows who the murderer is from the first chapter.People are being knocked off all through the novel and the reader knows what will happen beforehand and who pulls the trigger. Even the detectives and the police know who the murders are.  The problem is proving it.  The reader, at lest this reader, frantically turned page after page sure the police or someone would step in and do something. Stuart Woods pulls it all together in a mind boggling climax. Even though Mr. Woods planted a seed several pages back, this reader forgot about it in the final maneuvering of the men hired to take care of the clever killer. This reader could have kicked herself for not anticipating the final killing on the last page. For lovers of fast, action based crime type novels, Santa Fe Dead is a must read.
