I grew up there.
Is your "Location" a reference to the infamous Houghton postcard? Last edited by curtw; 04-23-2015 at 10:39 AM. |

I know about Yooperland too -- I dated a Yooper collegiate for 8 years, a while back. So I have a spot in my heart for the area. I picked up the book too! And sent him an email about the book.

Wow, who'd a thunk it!
I'm not quite as far north as that sign, but close. I do have family from up in the Keeweenw, and more family from east at Drummond Island. I love this craggy, bluffy, piney place. |

Several of Louise Penny's Inspector Gamache books are on special at $2.99 right now. A great deal, as the last two were over $10.00 until this morning.

The Butchers by J D Wright A young black maid is found hanged from a tree. Lynched. Tied to her lifeless toes is a note: `N*GG*RS DON'T DATE WHITES' In an otherwise quiet and civilized community, this brutal murder cracks in the peaceful façade. The status quo - or segregation - that keeps the townsfolk at ease is beginning to rupture. Warren Delaney, a newly-hired writer for the Abingdon Herald finds himself at the forefront of the investigation into this mysterious and heinous crime. Delaney, Dawson and co. must investigate if anyone is to bring this young black woman to justice and reconcile the two races separated by skin colour in this deep Southern town. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UVO9XL2/ http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00UVO9XL2/ http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00UVO9XL2/ I had to F*CK with the above to get it to post in an amazon discussion board. In the book the n*t* d**s c*nta*n asterisks. |

That's too bad. The trouble with automated moderation is that it can't make allowances for common sense and serious discussion. Everything is assumed to be shouting and mean spirited.
