The Driver

<p>Here it is my newest tale The Driver. It concerns a streetcar driver by name of Georg Vintner. Georg was born in Norway came to the U.S. at a young age and went to sea. Somehow he washed ashore in San Francisco in 1877. He has given up the sea and now drives a tram. These days most streetcars are pulled by horses.</p><p> </p><p>Georg's job is not an easy one. He works a 16 hour shift six days a week. The horses don't have it much better though they only work four or five hours a day. They last about five years on the job.</p><p> </p><p>That's bad enough but now a man is murdered on Georg's car in the middle of a riot. Georg is suspected of the killing for lack of anyone else to blame it on. Now he finds himself with the job of trying to solve the murder.</p><p> </p><p>I think this book is my first murder mystery though I'm not sure about that. With most other mysteries the detective actually solves the crime. Read the tale and you decide.</p>
