Reviews"With Moving Targets, Warren Easley delivers another humdinger of a tale featuring the City of Roses. But there's so much more to like about this story than just its evocative Portland setting. Cal Claxton is a guy worth rooting for, and the gang who aid him in solving the complex and dangerous mystery involved are a fun bunch to follow. If you're not familiar with these gems out of Oregon, now's the perfect time to give Warren Easely and Cal Claxton a try. You won't be disappointed. " - William Kent Krueger, award-winning, bestselling author of Ordinary Grace and the Cork O'Connor series "Intelligent dialogue, evocative descriptions of the Oregon landscape, and sly pokes at the current cultural climate make this a winner. " - Publishers Weekly "Easley continues in every installment of this series to get a better handle on his characters and the vital balance between principal and supporting plots. " - Kirkus Reviews "It's a familiar trail of crime syndicates, money laundering, and contract killers, but what's most interesting is Claxton himself- good-natured, superficially dull as dishwater, not at all deft with the ladies. He's generally slow to anger, too, but when the greedheads, on top of their international scams, crank up a loud gravel quarry outside Claxton's home, things change. They should have known better. " - Booklist, Don Crinklaw
