I grew up there.

Is your "Location" a reference to the infamous Houghton postcard?

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.

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.

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.

Truman's Spy is on US Kindle Countdown at $0.99 for about five more days, before going up to $3.99. This is a cold war spy story by Noel Hynd, from whom we've previously had Flowers from Berlin also as a US Kindle Countdown.

link: http://www.amazon.com/Trumans-Spy-Co...dp/B00BME11I8/

Spoiler:

It is early 1950, the midpoint of the Twentieth Century.

Joe McCarthy is cranking up his demagoguery and Joseph Stalin had intensified the cold war. In Washington, J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI is fighting a turf war with the newly founded Central Intelligence Agency. Harry Truman is in the White House, trying to keep a lid on domestic and foreign politics, but the crises never stop. It should be a time of peace and prosperity in America, but it is anything but.

FBI agent Thomas Buchanan is assigned to investigate the father of a former fiancée, Ann Garrett, who dumped Buchanan while he was away to World War Two. And suddenly Buchanan finds himself on a worldwide search for both an active Soviet spy and the only woman he ever loved. In the process, he crosses paths with Hoover, Truman, Soviet moles and assassins, an opium kingpin from China, and a brigade of lowlife from the American film community.

Truman’s Spy is a classic cold war story of espionage and betrayal, love and regret, patriots and traitors. This is the revised and updated 2013 edition of Noel Hynd’s follow-up to Flowers From Berlin. The story is big, a sprawling intricate tale of espionage, from post-war Rome and Moscow to New York, Philadelphia and Hollywood, filled with the characters, mores and attitudes of the day. And at its heart: the most crucial military secret of the decade.

"Noel Hynd knows the ins and outs of Washington's agencies, public and private." - Publishers Weekly

"A notch above the Ludums and Clancys of the world....." - Booklist

"The novels of Noel Hynd stand out!" - Martin Levin, NY Times
