About This Book

A surveillance assignment at Carl Sandburg's Connemara estate turns deadly when history professor Janice Wainwright is found injured on Glassy Mountain and dies after whispering one clue: 'the Sandburg verses.' As the person who discovered her, private investigator Sam Blackman becomes the prime suspect. An autopsy confirms medical malpractice, but a break-in and theft of Sandburg volumes suggest someone is hunting information worth killing for. To clear his name and stop more violence, Sam and Nakayla must decode a trail of literary history, mountain lore, and calculated murder.
