ELOQUENT CORPSE

From Art Shay prizewinning photographer and author of Nelson Algren's Chicago: Lavin has done it again. Eloquent Corpse the sequel to Eloquent Blood is a murderously funny mystery (and satire). Think Agatha Christie with a dash of Janet Evanovich. You ll laugh out loud as a group of eccentrics stumble toward solving the crimes. From Mary Grimm author of Stealing Time: Mary Beth is invited to a writers conference where she finds the participants as hard to handle as Turkish camel wrestlers. Everyone has an agenda and murder is high on the list. A witty dissection of literary gatherings with a dash of romance. From Dr. Seckin Ergin author of The American Novel: 1900-1950: Lavin has borrowed my name for a minor character in her joyous romp through an exciting murder mystery. In Eloquent Corpse she goes where no author has gone before and cleverly links authentic experiences in Turkey to a delightfully evil writers conference in Ohio.
