About the Book

Donald Harstad, a 26-year police veteran, has firsthand knowledge of small town police departments. This background enables him to create the authentic details, realistic dialogue, and suspenseful twists in Known Dead. Deputy Sheriff Carl Houseman is dozing in his cruiser near parklands in Nation County, Iowa when he hears popping sounds. Immediately, his radio screams to life with a call for assistance. What started as a simple raid on a marijuana patch has erupted into high-power gunfire. As the air clears, two men are known dead. But who was firing, and what else are they protecting? Houseman will find few heroes as he follows a convoluted trail that leads from the marijuana plants to an elusive international operator. By the time the case is closed, "known dead" has taken on a new meaning for him. Ron McLarty's dramatic narration highlights Houseman's increasingly ironic attitude toward life and his profession.

Review :

"A complicated little conundrum of a plot that keeps Houseman, the Feds, and the reader guessing all the way through...An author who knows his territory."

-- "New York Times"

"Hardcore procedural fans will find Carl's second case authentically...realistic."

-- "Kirkus Reviews"

"Harstad...advances the scary (and perversely entertaining) notion that people are just as cuckoo in the heartland as they are in the wicked city."

-- "New York Times Book Review"

"Instantly propels him into the top ranks of mystery writers."

-- "Booklist"

"Ron McLarty nicely vivifies the characters, keeps the action moving, and best, of all, makes the mind work fascinating."

-- "AudioFile"
