Review: On the Wrong Track by Steve Hockensmith
Today in January’s crime fiction section, contributing editor David Thayer reviews Steve Hockensmith’s follow-up novel to 2006’s very successful Holmes on the Range. As much as Thayer liked that book, he likes this one better, enjoying the history as much as the mystery.
When not inciting guffaws, California writer Steve Hockensmith manages to establish enough of a plot -- complete with red herrings, gunplay and bad guys -- to keep his story on the straight and narrow, and chugging full steam ahead.The full review is here.

If you like that book then you will probably also like Con Ed, mystery, wit and humor.

Wow, that's quite a stew! If Hockensmith managed to combine all those elements and have it come out as tasty as you describe, my Stetson is off to him.
I guess I'll have to go buy it. Sigh. So many books to read. (Though I suppose that's better than too few.)
