The Guilty Abroad by Peter J Heck

The Guilty Abroad by Peter J Heck

Mark Twain is in merry old England to see his family. Wentworth Cabot, Twain's assistant, is looking forward to seeing the sights, and hopefully finding some peace and quiet--when not helping his boss with a new lecture series. But peace is the last thing they find when they bump into Slippery Ed, a con man from New Orleans and an acquaintance of Twain's. Ed convinces Twain and his family to attend a seance. The famed author is skeptical of spooks. But when another attendee is murdered, Twain must discover whether the killer is one of the flesh-and-blood members of the audience--or a specter from the beyond.

Heck, Peter J.: - Peter Heck is the author of the Mark Twain Mysteries: six novels featuring the famous author as a detective, set in the 1890s. He is also co-author (with the late Robert Asprin) of four books in the Phule's Company series of comic military SF novels. Before setting out as a novelist, Peter worked as an editor at Ace Books and has freelanced for Baen and Del Rey, editing Spider Robinson, Robert Sawyer, and Harry Turtledove (among others). Before that, he created the SF newsletter Xignals and its mystery equivalent Crime Times for the Waldenbooks chain. He is also a long-time reviewer for Asimov's Science Fiction. Peter is currently a reporter and photographer at the Kent County News in Chestertown, Maryland, where he grew up. His beats include local government and the arts. He also plays lead guitar in a local band, Col. Leonard's Irregulars, and is a founding member of the Chestertown chess club.
