Murder in Panama, besides being a romantic fast moving adventure
set along coastal Panama, questions how far govenment and large corporations
can go in steering our lives. Super-hero, Jimmy Hart, thinks they have
outstepped their bounds and takes corrective action in this fiction that you
will not be able to set down. Another winner for author Bob Hatting.

Such a fast moving, action filled story!
It gripped me from the very beginning, caught me with delightful characters and
their adventures. Hart and Coreen had my sympathy from the start, not losing it
through the story, not even for a moment.
The exotic setting was a pleasure, making me want to visit Panama badly. This
book is a must read for those who want to learn more about this country, while
enjoying a good story. If you have a ticket for a plane heading to Central
America, grab this book and read it while in the air. You will not regret it
and the hours of the flight will pass quickly.
The premise of the book was very interesting, and I heard that it might have
been based on real scientific conclusions.
All in all a highly recommended read!

AS always, I very much enjoyed the story that Robert Hatting
weaves in this fast-paced, action-packed adventure, sprinkled with romance. I
appreciated the way he developed the characters, as well as the story line. I
quickly became enamored of the hero, Jimmy Hart, and rooted for him as he took
on what should have been an enemy too big to overcome. Join in this fascinating
ride as Jimmy manages to rise above the challenges that come his way. I
guarantee that you will be cheering for him as well. :)

Jimmy Hart is a man of many talents and the perfect hero for the
novel 'Murder In Panama' by Robert Hatting. There is a little of something for
every reader, fast paced excitement, intensive knowledge of the locale (makes
you believe you are there in Panama), romance, daring sidekick, an American
soldier who continues to fight, and a hero who is bright and smart, bright and
smart enough to make millions from his inventions. Meet Panamanian people and
share a view into their lives, get a feel for the country. Pay attention to
what the author writes in the novel and you might be on the way to becoming a
Jimmy Hart!! He is Panama's James Bond. It was hard to put the book down.

Murder in Panama, set amidst the tropical languor of the Pacific
coast of Chiriqui Province, is an intriguing mix of murder, corporate
malfeasance by Big Pharma, greed and understated heroics. All that's needed to
enjoy this is a hammock and a pina colada!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book . I love reading stories
that took place in the territories of the old west. This author keeps your
interest throughout the entire book. I didn't want to put it down. I have been
pleased by all the books I have read by this author. I highly recommend this
book.

I read this because I have read other of this authors works and
was equally impressed. The cowboy/western genre is one I never would have even
tried had I not read His Alaska Be Damned. Since then I have read everything he
has here on Amazon and enjoyed every single one. Highly recommend this author.

One usually thinks of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday in Tombstone
when they think of attempting to bring law into pre-statehood Arizona. This is
a story about how it must have been for cattlemen dealing with that same
lawlessness, rustling and ethnic and cultural conflicts out on the rangelands
of Arizona during that same period of time when the law usually ended up being
more like a burr under your saddle than of any assistance. The
"Half-Breed" grandson and his grandfather end up cleaning out the
rustling and lawlessness from both sides of the border and recover their herd
with some assistance from his native american family and taking the law into
their own hands. Another great reading book from Robert Hatting that is so
vivid that you can almost smell the horses.

I enjoyed reading this book from cover to cover. It opened my eyes
as to what really goes on behind the scenes of a rodeo. The author has a
wonderful imaginative mind and keeps up the interest of the story throughout. I
loved Crystal Cowboy and look forward to reading all of his books.

Having already read another of this author's books, I picked
"Crystal Cowboy" expectant. And yes, disappointed I was NOT!
This story gripped me from the very beginning, with its lovely main characters,
Harp and Goldie, mother and son who are friends and partners more than anything
else. The journey to a local rodeo contest turns into a long gripping adventure
for both of them, and for quite a few others, their friends and partners and
even their antagonists. Like it so very often happens in a real life, they got
into all sorts of unexpected adventures the modern day cowboys, apparently,
know how to deal with, finding love and more friends along the way.
I kept turning pages (virtually so, as I'm very fond of my Kindle), enjoying
the journey alongside with them, surprised at the many unexpected turns. The
story rolls on smoothly, pleasantly, wonderfully consistent, enjoyable and
light despite its unarguable depth. The characters are growing, changing along
the way, but subtly so, the way it happens in the real life, usually through
mundane, non-dramatic events.
I grew very fond of this author's style and I'm planning to read as many of his
works as I can lay my hands on, having a few more of his books on my Kindle
already.
A highly recommended 5 stars read!

Crystal Cowboy takes you right into the heart of modern Rodeo. A
riviting story of a group of rodeo cowboy's lives in and out of the arena that
could have just happened anywhere you might find people wearing cowboy boots. I
hope the author does a sequel as I was left wanting more as I finished the
book.

I thoroughly enjoyed this read. Mr. Hatting really brings the
world of rodeo to life in a way that makes it easy to understand and feel as if
you are sitting right there with the characters - even if you have never been
around such things. The love stories nestled within the main story add to the
flavor in a very entertaining and heartwarming way. I would definitely
recommend this book.

What an exciting book to read! Cowboys & girls will not want
to miss this one. A modern day rodeo setting that includes political activists,
a mother/son/mom's boyfriend war, and well-written romance, makes this book
much more than just another western story. Loved reading this contemporary rodeo
adventure by Robert Hatting.

I agree with what the two previous reviewers said. I have been to
a couple of rodeos in my life and never had any idea of what all went on behind
what you see in that brief moment.
I have read everything else he has written and enjoyed this one equally. I
think he has lead a very interesting life from what I have read. I started with
Alaska Be Damned and because I enjoyed it so much I thought, "what the
heck" I'll buy a Cowboy story and see how he does there. Normally I would
never have spent a dime on a cowboy story. Darned if I didn't want him to write
a sequel. Well, he has a couple of others quite similar so I bought them too.
Enjoyed them all. Some day I would like to meet him. Mr. Hatting if you read
this please write something else for us. Thanks
P.S. Even if you think you wouldn't enjoy one of his stories give it a try.
