5.0 out of 5 stars The Owens Valley Water War, January 1, 2002

By A Customer

This book could only have been written by a local of the Owens Valley or a former employee of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (DWP). Kirk Mitchell portrays the exact feelings that the people of the Owens Valley have on the taking of water by the city of Los Angeles. He not only demonstrates how long this battle has been going on, but also that it is still ocurring with Los Angeles not cooperating with the Long Term Groundwater agreement it has with Inyo County (Waucoba County). The descriptions of the LA aqueduct and of the Valley itself truly depict what it looks like. The use of the characters portrays what it is like to be a local of the Owens Valley. Entwined in this history is a mystery that a lead female charcter BLM Ranger is working on involving the bombing of the LA aqueduct. An excellant book even if you are not from the Owens Valley.

5.0 out of 5 stars Action packed mystery that I could put down till finished., September 2, 1998

By A Customer

I so enjoyed this mystery I'm trying to find the first book of the series. I certainly hope Mr. Mitchell continues on with this character. I'm an avent mystery buff and this was an exciting action packed story. The character of Dee has room to grow which makes another adventure anticipated. Advertise more.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY, VERY GOOD!, November 23, 1999

By A Customer

I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO FIND BOTH 'DEE lEGUERRE' BOOKS. THE MAIN CHARACTER IS A BLM RANGER IN THE OWENS VALLEY AREA.DEE IS A VERY STRONG CHARACTER, OF BASQUE DESCENT, WITH A FEEL FOR THE REAL PEOPLE INVOLVED IN IN THE STORY. I HOPE THAT MR MITCHELL IS INSPIRED TO WRITE MORE BOOKS ABOUT MS.LEGUERRE. ALL FANS OF NEVADA BARR AND DANA STABENOW SHOULD LOVE THESE BOOKS. THIS BOOK IS SO FULL OF ACTION AND MYSTERY, WITH A FEELING THAT THIS STORY COULD REALLY HAPPEN.READERS WHO SHARE A DISLIKE OF THE L.A AQUADUCT WILL BE INTERESTED IN THE OUTCOME OF THE STORY. HOPE I HAVE PEAKED YOUR INTEREST.
