News and Reviews...

"J.R. Sanders, through Nate Ross, spins us a story with 1938 household names - Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, Yakima Canutt...John Wayne.  Pick up Stardust Trail, get comfy in your favorite spot with your favorite beverage, tune out distractions - unless you've got music by Gene Autry or Dave Stamey handy - and settle in for an enjoyable ride along the Stardust Trail." -- Six-Gun Justice Podcast

"J.R. Sanders' novel is a solid addition to L.A.'s noir literary canon. More Nate Ross, please." - Joan Renner, true crime historian, t.v. commentator, and author (The First with the Latest!: Aggie Underwood, the Los Angeles Herald, and the Sordid Crimes of a City)

"The plot is thoroughly engaging and well-thought-out. The characters and dialogue are well-developed. It's a realistic bad guys vs. the good guy crime novel with intrigue and a labyrinth of clues and hints trying to connect the dots. Things are not always what they seem, and the plot kept me guessing right up until the end." - Anita Dickason, Mystery Review Crew
