November, 1935. Harry Kvist walks out the gates of Langholmen jail into another biting Stockholm winter. He has nothing to his name but a fiercely burning hope: that he can begin a new life with the lover he met in his cell. That he can leave behind his old existence of gutter brawls, bruised fists and broken bones. That he can finally go straight. But the city has other ideas. Nazis are spreading their poison on the freezing streets, and one of Kvist’s oldest friends has been murdered. Before he can leave Stockholm’s underworld for good, he must track down the killer. As Kvist uncovers a trail of blood leading to the highest echelons of Swedish society, the former boxer finds himself in a fight to the death with his most dangerous opponent yet.

In this “lively noir mystery,” a 1940s Hollywood private eye tries to clear heavyweight champ Joe Louis and corner a killer (Library Journal). Joe Louis may be the heavyweight champ of the world, but private detective Toby Peters is pretty sure he’s not a cold-blooded killer. Pretty sure, because Peters has just found the boxer standing over a man on the beach who’s clearly been beaten to death. Louis claims he was just out for a run, but it doesn’t look good. Offering his services on the spot, Peters joins the champ’s corner. The corpse isn’t just anyone. He happens to be Peters’s ex-wife’s new husband, the one she just hired him to find. Well, he found him. As the detective begins to investigate, he discovers the victim had lately taken an interest in the boxing world, which only further complicates matters. To clear the Louis, Peters will need to go a few rounds with a killer who won’t be pulling any punches. The Edgar Award winner once again delivers a TKO in the hard-boiled detective genre with a tale Library Journal calls “vintage Kaminsky.”

What if you could go back in time to change some things? What would you change? How would you change it? What if going back meant completely forgetting who you are and actually becoming your younger self, and all you could do is send yourself a message or two to help you? On top of that, it's a one-time, one-way trip, and you actually have to completely live your life all over again, with a 50% chance that the trip will make you go insane. Do you still want to try? This a story of a very different life than anyone has ever lived, because starting from age 6, Alan Hayes knows the future, or at least some of it, and he's going to try to change it as he lives his life again. But what will trying to change the future do to Alan and those he cares about? Richard Hasey was born and brought up in Bangor, Maine, where he graduated from Bangor High School. He has a BS from Norwich University, and a MBA from Babson College. After graduating from Norwich, Richard married his high school sweetheart, spent 6 years in the US Army, and earned a CPA License. Richard has written a number of technical papers over the years, and has only recently begun to write fiction. Currently, Richard is working as an independent contractor helping firms improve their compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Enron Bill). Richard became a Christian when he was in college over 30 years ago, and the Lord has asked him to do many things that have challenged his faith, some of which have been alluded to in the stories he's written. Richard and his wife Jane live in Tewksbury, MA, and are still happily married after 33 years.
