About this title

About the Author:

Michael Z. Lewin is the award-winning author of many mystery novels and short stories. Most have been set in and around Indianapolis, Indiana, where he grew up. Albert Samson is a low-key private eye and the stories focus on humane understanding of the cases and problems Samson encounters. Leroy Powder is an irascible Indy police lieutenant who truly wants his colleagues to become better cops. They're bound to be grateful, right? Both central characters have an abiding wish to see justice done. One of the features of the series novels, and some stand-alones, is that that main characters from one book often appear in lesser roles in other books. Since 1971 Mike has lived in the West of England, currently in Bath where his city-centre flat overlooks the nearby hills. Both his children have made careers in the arts.

Review:

Among the most convincing private eyes of recent years has been Albert Samson ... Mr. Lewin's book is marked by a sharp style, crisp dialogue and believable characters New York Times Book Review ...lean, and sinewy prose propels the reader...through a satisfying book Houston Post Lewin's best book... The dialogue is authentic, the settings attractive and the mystery real New Republic ...Albert's dry, airy humor is in fine working order--and it's grounded, now, by a pessimistic downward tug that suits Lewin surprisingly well Kirkus Reviews
