Well, it was a novel based on a TV show based on a novel series, so I can't blame you for being a little puzzled at first.
Trivia: Bizarrely, Loose Ends was published in France as The Assassins Never Forget, which came as a surprise to me when I got a copy.
Truly! Out of curiosity: had you gone to Carlsbad/Whites City before writing the book, and did you get a laugh later when Isabel actually married a guy named Ramirez?
Never been to New Mexico, alas. Relied heavily on travel guides and the internet for research!
Confession: due to deadline pressures, I had to write that book in one month!

What sort of resources did you find online in 2001? For my trip, I'm spending a lot of time with Google Earth. I look forward to seeing what the area looks like in person! I'll be going from Carlsbad to Roswell, not for aliens but for the air force museum. I'd hoped to actually land at Walker, but their return flights are limited to 7 am.

That reminds me of a novel I saw a few years back (By Max Allan Collins if I recall). Based on the tv show Bones, which is of course based on the Kathy Reichs authored series of books.
Currently, I'm reading Castaway Planet by Flint and Spoor.
They're also doing tie-in novels for ELEMENTARY these days, which I supposed is kinda the same thing.

Yeah, since the characters from the original and the new are apparently markedly different.
On a side note, there's yet to be any Bones/TOS crossover fanfics on fanfiction.net. Surprised somebody hasn't thought of universe swapping the two Boneses already.
"I'm a doctor, not a forensic pathologist!"
Spock would find Brennan more logical than their Bones. Oh, the irony! And she shares Kirk's penchant for dramatic pauses (though with her, it's because she's thinking out loud while analyzing the skeletons.)
She'd be like, "240 years and you still can't come up with a more original nickname than that?"
Hoping to begin "Captain to Captain" when my library hold comes in.

Took a break from a Starfleet Corps of Engineers binge to reread JG Ballard's High-Rise after seeing the movie (been at least 25 years since I first read it) and the 33 1/3 book on the Jesus and Mary Chain's Psychocandy.
"As Love Blooms" by Lorna Seilstad. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23411594-as-love-blooms?ac=1&from_search=true See, I'm not all sci fi.
Doing a runthrough of Independence Day:War in the Desert.
Man, I'm so glad I read High-Rise before seeing the movie otherwise I'm fairly certain I wouldn't have been able to follow what was going on.
Kind of makes me want to reread Concrete Island now. If High-Rise seems like an improbable premise, that one is even more so.
Started on The Last Days of Krypton by Jevin J Anderson.
Just finished The Autobiography of James T. Kirk. It was a good book, and a lot of it was great, although it suffered from a lot from Kirk coincidentally running into a bunch of people pre-Enterprise that he'd know in the show, and probably too many references to Enterprise (the show) and stuff like that. Still, overall it was entertaining, and I like how it explained the events of TFF.
Just finished Star Trek/Planet of the Apes #1: The Primate Directive. It was free on Amazon, but it ends with Kirk and co discovering the Klingons are talking to apes.
