"Breakneck pace and solid atmosphere are the hallmarks here." —AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION
When a local schoolteacher disappears from rural West Wheeling, acting sheriff Homer Deters investigates. Before long he's got three more missing persons, two unidentified bodies, a car theft, a twenty-three-vehicle pile-up in the center of town, a missing tiger, and a squad of agitated ATF agents to deal with.
With no help from the Feds, Homer turns to his buddy, Rye Willis, and West Wheeling's eccentric postmistress, Nina Ross, to locate the missing, identify the bodies, and bring a murderer to justice. Packed with regional charm and Deters' wit, Death in West Wheeling shows how wild one case can get.

      Dymmoch (The Fall) delivers a regional mystery with a likable enough narrator, acting sheriff Homer Deters of rural West Wheeling, Ill. A sudden rash of missing persons is the most exciting case to break on Deters's watch, and when he discovers body parts-bones, a toe-in Goode Swamp, Deters realizes he may be dealing with murder. Moreover, the KKK klavern is restless, and a local family is guilty of truancy. The plot shows promise, but some readers may balk at a book written almost entirely in dialect: "When the city fella came back, I was sittin' on the front porch of the post office with my feet up on the railin', doin' my best Deputy Redneck imitation."
