SIX ACTION-PACKED THRILLERS FROM AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR FRANK RODERUS. A maverick son of the new West, Heller's a man you can turn to when your life's in danger...if you can get him off his butt.

But Heller's also a law school dropout with a head for justice that is as hard as the Colorado Rockies with a mile-wide stubborn streak. Heller fights hard and plays harder. Wise-talking, quick-thinking, with a body that can absorb and dish out a lot of that's the combination that's kept Heller alive…so far. The Complete Thriller Series includes – The Oil Rig, The Rain Rustlers, Coyote Crossing, The Video Vandal, The Turn-out Man and The Dead Heat.
Author
Frank Roderus wrote his first story—it was a western—when he was five. It was really awful, as might be expected, but his mother kept that typed and spell-checked short story tucked away until the day she died. Later, Frank became a newspaper reporter, thinking that books are written by authors which he most assuredly was not. He kept trying to write though, and eventually did it wrong enough to learn how to get it right. That first sale, a young adult novel published by Independence Press, was more than thirty years and a good many books ago. As a journalist, the Colorado Press Association awarded Frank Roderus their highest award, the Sweepstakes Award, for the best news story of 1980, and the Western Writers of America has twice named Frank recipient of their prestigious Spur Award. Frank passed away at age 73 in December 2015.
