Billy Boyle by James R Benn

Billy Boyle, a young Irish-American cop from Boston, has just been made detective when WWII breaks out. His 'Uncle Ike' (Dwight D. Eisenhower) has been plucked from obscurity to command Army forces in Europe and he wants Billy to be his personal investigator. But Billy, who has never left Boston before, is not sure of his ability as a detective. Dutifully, he sets off for England's Beardsley Hall. Accompanied by an aristocratic Polish officer and a beautiful British nurse, Billy's mission is to catch a spy who may have been planted there...

Billy Boyle's World War II mysteries are written by James R.Benn. Billy Boyle, his debut, was called one of Book Sense's top five mysteries of 2006 and was a Dilys Award contender. These books garnered starred ratings from Publishers Weekly and Library Journal, as well as being named Bookpage Mystery of the Month. The Independent Mystery Booksellers Association has designated two of them as Killer Books. Benn and his wife, Deborah Mandel, live in Hadlyme, Connecticut, where he has worked as a librarian for many years.
