Om The Long Black Night
Major Booth Sommerlott returns in another baffling 1930s mystery... The major travels into the foothills of the Appalachians after receiving a weekend invitation from an old college roommate, only to have his host murdered on the very eve of his arrival. On the heels of the crime the guests discover that the severe storm of the night before has stranded them on the estate, leaving them with no outside help. Now it is up to the major, the only one in the house with any investigative experience, to unravel the curious circumstances of the crime. What part do a lady's perfume, an unusual pistol shot, an empty morphine bottle, and a missing kitchen knife play in the explanation of the crime? And will he be able to find the solution before the killer strikes again? "The Long Black Night" is a mystery in the Golden Age tradition, with an amateur gentleman detective, an isolated house full of suspects, and a logical if unexpected conclusion.
