    This book really captured the feel of the mid-1970s. I liked how Sy’s investigation uncovered more
  • than just a single crime. The deeper he dug, the more complex everything became. The moral
  • dilemmas he faces are handled thoughtfully. It’s a mystery that doesn’t rush its message. I’m glad I
  • picked this one up.

This is the dedication:




Today (March 9) in nearby Saratoga Springs was the first warm day of spring, nice walking weather for me and Bella. In my prior post Blog Name Change, I hinted about moving away from the Civil War, the focus of my first three books, to this new historical novel, which is partly about a pacifist activist. I don't know if I'm fully on board with Dorothy's views yet, but the quiet streets of Saratoga seemed in sharp contrast to Iran now, or Ukraine, both of which places are in urgent need of an immediate cease-fire followed by peacemaking.
