Biggie and the Poisoned Politician by Nancy Bell

Thomas Goodwin was a prolific author and editor. During the 1630s he coedited with John Ball the works of John Preston and Richard Sibbes. He began to publish his own sermons in 1636. Prior to his death, he had published at least twelve devotional works, most of which were collections of sermons. The fact that they were reissued forty-seven times indicates the high demand and wide circulation of his publications. Most of Goodwin's major theological writings were the fruit of his riper years and were published posthumously. His unusually large corpus of treatises display a pastoral and scholarly zeal rivaled by few Puritans. Goodwin represents the best of Puritanism in addressing the intellect, will, and heart. His writings reveal the vigor of earlier Puritans such as William Perkins and Richard Sibbes as well as the mature thought of later Puritan divines, supremely represented by Owen.
Nancy Bell has always been fascinated by the landscape, language, and lore of her childhood home of East Texas. In her Biggie mysteries, Bell lets her rural roots shine through. She now lives in Austin, Texas, where she is a housemother to the sorority sisters of Alpha Chi Omega at the University of Texas.
