Two hikers have been murdered on the trails of the local mountain, and now Evan must hunt down a vicious killer in a town where one of his lovable new neighbors could prove to be deadly...<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Evans Above</i></b> <p/>"Unique characterization and subtle humor."--<i>Library Journal</i> <p/>"Bowen perfectly captures the flavor of the fiercely nationalistic Welsh...we can't help but chuckle our way through this sweet-natured cozy."--<i>San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle</i> <p/>"The writing is tidy and straightforward.
