STEVE HOCKENSMITH discusses and signs
The Black Dove - A Holmes On the Range Mystery
(St. Martin's Minotaur, $23.95)


Kirkus said: "Fraternal Wild West detectives solve another case and still get no respect. While filling out applications at the prestigious Pinkerton Agency, Gustav 'Old Red' Amlingmeyer reflects on previous adventures he's shared with his brother, Otto 'Big Red' (On the Wrong Track, 2007, etc.). Gustav has been obsessed with Holmes ever since reading Arthur Conan Doyle, and Otto tags along as a reluctant Watson who narrates their tales with an engaging mixture of gusto and cynicism... Hockensmith's third Holmes on the Range mystery is buoyant and consistently entertaining. Cheeky chapter titles add additional zip." And Library Journal concluded: "...Hockensmith has been nominated for the Edgar Award, and if he keeps writing like this, he'll win one soon."
