Death Of A Poet (third in a series, with one more recently completed) features Sean Fogarty, a country lawyer, who gets involved in solving murders in Silvertown, Wisconsin, a small imaginary town in northern Wisconsin. The novels deals with the murder of a noted poet visiting for the poetry festival held at the University of Wisconsin-Silvertown. The novel is closer to an English cosy than a tough guy, beat 'em up sort. The writing is fast-paced and sardonic, and treats of both the nastily rivalrous world of contemporary poets and the mores of a small university town in the sticks. Despite the obstructions of the local chief of police, and at the risk of his life, Fogarty is finally able to discover who done it.
