Review "Another riveting addition to one of the fi nest series in crime fi ction. A circuitous plot, fi nely drawn characters, and Mayors evocative, writerly grace notes... make this a must-read for crime lovers. " --Booklist (starred review) "I have a soft spot for quiet writers like Archer Mayor, whose unassuming voice and down to earth style stamp his regional crime novels with a sense of integrity. The strength of these narratives has always come from the authors profound understanding of his region and from his heros intuitive ability to relate to the people who live there." --Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Long Description Ben Kendall was a troubled man.
