Product Description
Synopsis
This title is the first in a new historical mystery series featuring Dr. Clyde Deacon. It is the year 1902. Widower Clyde Deacon has recently arrived in the small town of Fairfield, New York, to take up the post of doctor. He is regarded with some suspicion by the town's inhabitants, for not only does he come from Tennessee, but it is also well known that Dr Deacon was personal physician to President McKinley at the time of his assassination. When a beautiful young actress is found murdered, Deacon is asked by the county's overburdened sheriff and long-time friend, Stanley Armstrong, to assist him in the case. Dr Deacon works diligently to solve the crime, only to discover that the inhabitants of Fairfield are not as innocent as they seem, his fetching and talented victim not as blameless as she appears, and the truth more shocking than anyone could have imagined.

Interesting book
3 Oct 2009
Format:Hardcover
This book took a little "getting into", but once you learn a little of Dr. Deacon's past, the story was pretty good. It wasn't the most convoluted mystery, for sure, and real mystery fans will probably figure it out fairly quickly, but the historical details and Dr. Deacon's medical background coupled with his need to find resolution for murders make this a series to watch. I'm already anxious to know what happens with Clyde and Olive!
