I had never been a mystery reader until a friend suggested that I read "A Show of Hands." That captivated me. Then I purchased "Secret of a Missing Grave" and read it with my granddaughter. To date, I have read ALL five of David Crossman's books. I was successful in obtaining an out-of-print book "Murder in A Minor Key." "The Dead of Winter," true to a Crossman book, kept me entranced to the last page. He introduces you to characters that become your friends. His books have also provoked my husband and I to travel to Maine and investigate the islands. The "Maineiacs" are fascinating and remarkable people. All of his books deserve 5 stars. He has an expert technique of telling his stories with humor and suspense. You will not find inappropriate language, or obscene references. This proves that someone with the intellect of David Crossman can write without subjecting us to the ugliness of the world. Many Thanks for your skills.

Bravo, Mr. Crossman for yet another fantastic book.

Dead of Winter takes you to a small island town in Maine and captures you there until the last page. I found David Crossman's use of small town conversation and gossip an interesting way to reveal clues and information; endearing the small town and its people to the reader. You feel involved in this mystery of whodunit.
