400 years after the "first Thanksgiving," a luncheon for leaders of GreenHome LLC and the Wampanoag tribe ends in murder. Or does it? Was Harriet Benbow killed to stop her from building luxury condos on an ancient burial ground? As payback for snatching an Art Deco toastrack at a yard sale? Or mistakenly by a burglar? In the seaside village of Quansett, untangling a violent crime takes collaboration. Detective Pete Altman wonders: Why did the killer cut upthe victim's scalp? Soup-chef Lydia Vivaldi and Wampanoag pastry chef Mudge Miles wonder: Is someone trying to frame the Indians? Reclusive artist Edgar Rowdey, who'd rather be plotting his new Agatha Christie pastiche, wonders: What about the toastrack?

With her husband recently murdered and a mother who seems to want her married again before his body is cold, she just wants to keep her head down. As a secretary to a private detective, her life is pleasingly uncomplicated, filled with coffee runs, diary management and paperwork. That is, until her boss takes on a new case.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: This book has been replaced by a fuller account of Edward Gorey's theatrical work, Edward Gorey On Stage: Playwright, Director, Designer, Performer: a Multimedia Memoir, available in both print and e-book formats. How to classify the extraordinary Edward Gorey? Artist? Writer? Dark humorist? What about Dramatist? It was in theatre that Gorey's public career started and finished. As a postwar Harvard University student, he and his friends Frank O'Hara, Alison Lurie, John Ashbery, and others created the legendary Poets' Theatre. After winning a Tony Award on Broadway for Frank Langella's Dracula, Gorey left New York for Cape Cod. From Woods Hole to Provincetown, he wrote, designed, and directed a scintillating set of "entertainments" starring local actors and his own troupe of handmade puppets. Chief producer of Gorey's plays was his friend and neighbor Carol Verburg. Now she tells how he did it. From "The Helpless Doorknob" and "The Gilded Bat" to "Horror at Hamstrung Hall" and "Porptiga," she chronicles Gorey's adventures in drama, puppetry, opera, and even (briefly) acting.

The mountain couldn’t come to Wolfe, so the great detective came to the mountain—to Lame Horse, Montana, to be exact. Here a city slicker got a country girl pregnant and then took a bullet in the back. Wolfe’s job was to get an innocent man exonerated of the crime and catch a killer in the process. But when he packed his silk pajamas and headed west, he found himself embroiled in a case rife with local cynicism, slipshod police work, and unpleasant political ramifications. In fact, Nero Wolfe was buffaloed until the real killer struck again, underestimating the dandified dude with an unerring instinct for detection. Introduction by Don Coldsmith “It is always a treat to read a Nero Wolfe mystery. The man has entered our folklore.”—The New York Times Book Review A grand master of the form, Rex Stout is one of America’s greatest mystery writers, and his literary creation Nero Wolfe is one of the greatest fictional detectives of all time. Together, Stout and Wolfe have entertained—and puzzled—millions of mystery fans around the world. Now, with his perambulatory man-about-town, Archie Goodwin, the arrogant, gourmandizing, sedentary sleuth is back in the original seventy-three cases of crime and detection written by the inimitable master himself, Rex Stout.

"Everything I want in a mystery...a plot that keeps you turning pages, terrific dialog.... I enjoyed every minute of it." Cape Cod! To Lydia Vivaldi, the quaint seaside village of Quansett looks like sanctuary -- until she learns her one friend here is dead. How could an expert Fix-It Chick fall off a ladder at a film shoot? When Lydia lands a soup-chef job at Leo's Back End, she starts asking questions. Gossip and recollections from the locals -- a hippie bookstore clerk, an ex-police photographer, a Wampanoag pastry chef, a pair of Broadway musical composers -- reveal some dark secrets behind those white picket fences. Still Lydia's stonewalled by the flirtatious filmmaker and warned off by the police. Only Edgar Rowdey, famous artist-author of creepy little storybooks, shares her doubts about the "accident." Can this unlikely pair of detectives find out what really happened before it happens again?

This is a story of a City and its people. In 1912, Lawrence, Massachusetts was referred to as a Mill Town, run by the whistles and bells of mills and churches. Pasquale Foenia lived there with his parents, and people from over fifty nations, lured there by Yankee aristocracy promising them food, shelter and work. Instead, they found dangerous working conditions and 60 hours of tedious work for $6.00 a week. On a cold day in January, one of the greatest mass protests in American history took place, the Bread and Roses Strike. Wages were cut and thousands of workers walked out. Strikers, mostly women and children, were met with militia and fire hoses. The killer 1918 Spanish Flu has many parallels to the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. What is unique about THREE WHISTLES is that the author challenges the myths perpetrated by movies and social media about the ultimate search for the American dream. She draws from a War hero captured by the Germans in World War II and a number of little known diaries. It is an historical look at how immigrant families persevered, their hopes, prejudices and love during the early twentieth century. This is a saga about family life; struggling to be Americans while holding onto their roots.
