Join Western Slope author Erik Storey as he presents his debut novel 'Nothing Short of Dying', a hard-boiled crime thriller set in the city of Rifle. Copies of the novel will be available for signing and purchase.

Storey will also present at the Rifle Branch Library on Friday, December 2 at 6 p.m.

“Nothing Short of Dying may be the year’s best debut thriller. It leaps at you like a wolf, sinks its teeth in, and won’t let go. Fans of Jack Reacher will love Clyde Barr, a dark, classic hero who can hold his own against any evil. The writing is fine and fast, and the high country of Colorado is painted in strokes of brilliance. I guarantee that readers of this first novel are going to clamor for more.”

-William Kent Kreuger, New York Times bestselling author
