TWO MULES FROM EL PASO begins as a mystery involving Iowa Bureau of Criminal Investigation detectives working a drug case at the local level, but soon moves to the ski country of Colorado where one of the investigators becomes involved in the rescue of a youthful ski class lost in a blizzard. The fear of vicious drug dealers melds with concern that eight-year-old children are freezing to death on a mountain to create exciting pages of reading. TAILSPIN, also by this author, recounts the terror of passengers aboard a jet plane on which both pilots suddenly die. AN AGREEMENT WITH CHINA, a novel by Dick Hansen, fantasizes a less bloody end to the Korean War in 1950, resulting in the reunification of Korea as one nation. 5x8, 88 pages.
