Yippee!!! One of my favorite things in life is to announce a new book written by one of my writer pals.
Today's launch is Bruce Robert Coffin's latest book, Beneath the Depths. I met Bruce at Crime Bake, a writer's conference here in Massachusetts, and became an instant fan. Do you want realistic Maine settings and a detective who really knows his stuff? Do yourself a favor and read this book! (And while you're at it, pick up his first novel, Among the Shadows. You'll be glad you did!)

Detective Sergeant John Byron
is back--and ready to prove that no one on his beat is above the
law.
When the body of prominent
Portland attorney Paul Ramsey turns up in the bottom of Casco Bay, following his
loss of a multimillion dollar civil trial, Byron knows it's no accidental
drowning. Golden boy Ramsey had a dark side--and Byron believes the key to
solving his murder lies in uncovering those secrets someone wanted buried along
with him.
With the brilliant Detective
Diane Joyner by his side, Byron takes on Ramsey's former employer, the
powerhouse law firm of Newman, Branch & DeWitt. But delving further into the
troubled waters of Ramsey's past only serves to lengthen the list of
suspects--unleashing a perfect storm of corruption, betrayal, and murder that
only Byron can stop. If he's not too late.
