Meanwhile a young boy out camping has vanished from atop Cat Mesa. A stringent search convinces Bill, his treasured deputy Estelle Reyes-Guzman, and Sheriff Martin Holman that the boy has been spirited away. Then when Estelle's own toddler goes missing, it's personal.... Steven F. Havill lives with his wife of 40 years, Kathleen, in New Mexico.
