Book excerpt: The life of a homicide cop is death with many causes: death for love, death for hate, death for revenge, death for money or death for no reason at all. The homicide cops worst nightmare is death by a serial killer with a plan. This gritty and fast moving story of a search for such a killer is a realistic portrayal of homicide investigation written by a former homicide detective who has been there. I was a homicide investigator during the time frame of this novel and I am impressed with the detail and account of both the technical and routine phases of murder investigations as we did them back in the day. Gerald R. Beavers Former Chief of Police, Asheville, North Carolina and Topeka, Kansas A fresh homicide on the street. Grab your pen and notebook and get to the scene. Beat the bushes. Talk to the street cops who show up. Talk to the street people whose trust you have developed over the years bartenders, prostitutes, crooks, store owners. The drums are beating in the neighborhood. People are talking. Get the right information and you solve the case. No DNA; no C. S. I.; no cell phones; no online information sources. No psychological profi les other than the knowledge and memory of sharp cops. No scientifi c interrogation techniques other than experience and knowledge of human nature. We found the killers and we put them away. This is the way it was in the late 1960s and Ed Mercer captures the tableau perfectly. The Dead Stroll is a nostalgia trip for those of us who walked the walk and talked the talk in those days and a historical document for those cops currently working homicides an authentic depiction of how it was. The scenes of riot and turmoil in the streets, the pressures of external and internal politics, the cops wit and crisp dialogue are all vivid and real. Dont miss this great read which is told in a way that only be written by a guy who has been there. Harry T. OReilly Detective Sergeant (retired) NYPD, Former supervisor, Manhattan South Homicide and Special Victims Unit

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No-nonsense Nantucket detective Merry Folger grapples with the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and two murders as the island is overtaken by Hollywood stars and DC suits. Nantucket Police Chief Meredith Folger is acutely conscious of the stress COVID-19 has placed on the community she loves. Although the island has proved a refuge for many during the pandemic, the cost to Nantucket has been high. Merry hopes that the Christmas Stroll, one of Nantucket’s favorite traditions, in which Main Street is transformed into a winter wonderland, will lift the island’s spirits. But the arrival of a large-scale TV production, and the Secretary of State and her family, complicates matters significantly. The TV shoot is plagued with problems from within, as a shady, power-hungry producer clashes with strong-willed actors. Across Nantucket, the Secretary’s troubled stepson keeps shaking off his security detail to visit a dilapidated house near conservation land, where an intriguing recluse guards secrets of her own. With all parties overly conscious of spending too much time in the public eye and secrets swirling around both camps, it is difficult to parse what behavior is suspicious or not—until the bodies turn up. Now, it’s up to Merry and Detective Howie Seitz to find a connection between two seemingly unconnected murders and catch the killer. But when everyone has a motive, and half of the suspects are politicians and actors, how can Merry and Howie tell fact from fiction? This latest installment in critically acclaimed author Francine Mathews’s Merry Folger series is an immersive escape to festive Nantucket, a poignant exploration of grief as a result of parental absence, and a delicious new mystery to keep you guessing.
