About the Author
Carolina native Mart Baldwin lives in the mountains he writes about, tends a little apple orchard and a big garden, and rambles whenever he can. Baldwin's Drifting The River, and a Busy Day in Loafer's Glory, as well as the next installment in Chief Hackett's adventures, Over The Edge.
Review
Chief James Hackett steps out of this debut novel fully formed and full of interesting quirks. -- Margaret Magon, former pres. Sisters in Crime; Agatha award winner
Hacket is Sherlock Holmes reincarnated in Mayberry. Reading Baldwin is a welcome home-cooked meal after months of drive-through mysteries. -- ENVEE Magazine
Keen satiric insights, vivid sights and sounds of small town Appalachia today. A must for those who like down-to-earth detective fiction spiced with humor. -- R. Steve Eberly, Pres. Writers Guild of Western North Carolina
