Grieving widower Harold McCaffrey moves into the Mountain Splendor Retirement Home and finds himself living in the Back Wing with a group of strange residents -- aging witches, vampires, werewolves and shape-shifters. He bonds with his fellow denizens, especially Bella, who has promise of becoming more than just a friend. Things are looking up for Harold -- until he and Bella must use all their normal and extra-normal skills to solve two murders in this very unique retirement community.
Mike Befeler has crafted a witty and fast-moving paranormal puzzle set in a retirement home that serves a dual population. The Front Wing houses so-called normal geriatrics, and the Back Wing is home to aging witches, werewolves, and shape-shifters. Where else could one enjoy the image of being gummed on the neck by a toothless vampire with dementia? It's a funread!
--Edgar winner Rex Burns
A clever mystery plot, a wacky cast of aging shape shifters, vampires, witches and more, along with a budding romance for widower Harold McCaffrey, provide loads of humor and intrigue in Befeler's new paranormal twist on his trademark geezer-lit mysteries.
--Cricket McRae, author of the Home Crafting Mystery Series
Mike Befeler has done it again. 'The Back Wing' made me laugh out loud. Harold and his geriatric witch girlfriend Bella rock. The mystery intrigued me, and the characters entertained.. What more can you ask from a book? I can't wait for my next visit to the Back Wing.
--Robert Spiller, author of The Bonnie Pinkwater Mysteries
