About the Author

To those who know him best, Clyde Deighton is the most uninteresting man in the world. Taciturn by nature and reclusive by design, he spends most of his time pursuing the life of a novelist and poetaster. Born in the Midwest, Deighton did not stary far from his small village until he was 19. Before he tried his hand at writing, the author was a cucumber salesman, Christmas-tree grower, schoolteacher, and failed piano player. He had no hobbies or interests, but spends copious amounts of time watching 1950s Westerns on television. Even though he claimed to lack the ambition to write a sequel to Murder at The French Country Inn, the author has now published Man In Trouble, a second novel in the French Country Inn Mystery series. Deighton seldom travels beyond his home in rural Wisconsin. He does, however, make occasional forays to the Lake Geneva resort area, where he stays at the French Country Inn.
