NEWS
Bonne Femme is being edited for e-publication.
Soon it will be removed from this site and replaced by
another novel, the fifth in the series.
Bonne Femme
The
first of the Richard Carter/Blue Creek novels. It takes place in Breton County, Michigan and on the island of Bonne
Femme, but leads Richard to Glenville, West Virginia and Cassville, Missouri (near Blue Creek in the Ozarks where the rest
of the stories are set.) All the stories are novels of obsession albeit of different sorts. This novel is "twofer"
in that sense.
This
novel is being edited for publication.
Canaan Camp
This is the third of the stories and the first set in and
around Blue Creek. (Unfortunately the second novel, Cold Tears cannot be posted because of contractual obligations.)
The Carters (Richard and Jill) have moved to Hawthorn County where he works as a "road deputy" while she teaches
at the local community college. The villain in this story is of course obsessed, and Richard is obsessed with finding
him.
Secret
Song
This is the fourth of the stories. This is the first of the stories posted on this site that is mystery as well as suspense.
It begins with the wrapping up of a very old case. This is story of obsession, misplaced trust, and a small act of kindness
turning into a dangerous and unconscious entanglement.
