Henry Kisor, a deaf author of several mystery novels and non-fiction books is set to release his new Steve Martinez mystery novel on November 27th. Cache of Corspes is set in Porcupine City in the upper Pennisula of Michigan. Here's a summary from Henry Kisor's website:
Deputy Steve Martinez -- Lakota Indian by birth, Porcupine City native by association -- has investigated many crimes, but none more surprising than the case before him now. When clues at the first crime scene lead to a second headless corpse, Steve realizes this is someone's twisted idea of a game. And these events couldn't come at a worse time: the election for county sheriff is fast approaching and the sudden rash of bodies is just the sort of ammunition Steve's opponent is all too eager to use against him. Luckily Steve's longtime love, beautiful redhead Ginny Fitzgerald, is still by his side, but even that relationship becomes strained as Steve searches for a way to connect with her foster son, Tommy.
This is Steve's toughest investigation yet -- one that spreads from secret Internet chatrooms into Chicago's seedy underbelly, and even takes to the air above Porcupine City. It will take all of Deputy Martinez's patience and cunning to catch a sociopath who's after the next forbidden rush. It might also force him to face some unpleasant truths about the locals he has sworn to protect.
Of all of Henry's books, I've especially enjoyed his memoir, "What's That Pig Outdoors" and his book about historical flight, "Flight of the Gin Fizz."
A few years ago, I had the wonderful opportunity to have lunch with Henry and learn about his career as a book editor/reviewer for the Chicago Sun Times and his path to becoming an author. The resulting article can be found here:
