 Sweet article in the Detroit News, with their "Suspenseful Summer" reads. In addition to recommending new books by Gillian Flynn, James Lee Burke, Alexander McCall Smith, and others, they included Detroit Breakdown! (Read the rest of the article at the URL below.) Here's what they said:
"Summer book lists usually proliferate when the lilacs are still in bloom, giving readers a chance to pile up books for the Fourth of July and early summer getaways. But for many of us, it's the dog days of summer when there is finally time to rack up some serious reading hours. . . . Right now, fans of the mystery/thriller genre have a bumper crop of new (and newer) books to consider. . . . "Readers who like Caleb Carr-style historical mysteries only have a few weeks to wait for Michigan author D.E. Johnson's ("The Detroit Electric Scheme) latest, "Detroit Breakdown: A Mystery" (Minotaur Books), out in September. Set in Detroit in 1912, the mystery involves a series of "opera ghost" murders (the Phantom of the Opera figures heavily) at the Eloise Hospital, Wayne County's insane asylum. One such murder involves the cousin of a young Detroiter, Elizabeth Hume, whose fiance, Will, has himself committed to Eloise in order to investigate. Will is already mixed up with some gangsters by the name of Bernstein, and other historic figures are in the mix — Edsel Ford makes a brief appearance, giving Will a reference."

Thanks so much for your writing!
I did read that often. In fact, the effect of not only stopped reading to acquire knowledge that that reading was a measure to improve all aspects of man. In this sense, the type of book learning culture, literature, history, philosophy is not just pure professional books that have become common policy for everyone, for society. Therefore, it would be flawed if you say 'I am SV Fitness What is required reading literature', or 'I am what students need reading Economic history', and that the books are not necessarily true for your work ... The advantages of reading matter was so obvious, think no need to repeat. Besides reading to acquire knowledge, sometimes reading practice for your skills, emotions and habits useful but sometimes you do not recognize. than'k post.! 4/30/2015 01:49:46 am
