Review: good mystery series - up to a point

I have read all of the Posadas books and have thoroughly enjoyed them - up to Bill no longer being the sheriff.  After Estelle became the main character, they no longer held my interest.  Her "laid back" attitude is, for me, just boring.  Maybe a series just plays out after a certain number of books.  I enjoyed Bill's self appraisals, getting to know his family (kids), and his appreciation of his home and community (I am about Bill's age so maybe I am biased).  Steven Havill is an excellent writer - not sure if he does other works but I will be looking to see.  This was not my favorite of the Posadas books, but Havill's writing is good enough to made it a decent read.
