Praise from other authors:
"In an surprisingly exotic setting (the tiny, church-founded Midwestern hamlet of Bishop Hill) Frommer has handed sensible, sexy, 40ish and newly married Joan Spencer two hard problems: murder, and the challenges facing a family when a beloved elderly relative begins to fail. Joan handles both with intelligence and grace."--SJ Rozan, author of Winter and Night
"Very much in the vein of the incomparable film FARGO, Sara Hoskinson Frommer's new mystery delicately builds its remarkable tension out of the paradox of a brilliantly realized snowy setting: the cold landscape of WITNESS IN BISHOP HILL is at once claustrophobic and wildly open, with no horizon in view, the snow and ice apparently endless. On this pristine setting, Frommer paints the color of death, again like FARGO's vista, and blood runs in the snow. Frommer delivers a fast-paced shocker of a story, but she also examines the depths of family tragedies-- inflicted from without and within, and openly approaches some of the most devastating ethical dilemmas faced by people who love each other. WITNESS IN BISHOP HILL is a wonderful book because, like all wonderful books, its first concern and biggest achievement is caring about what hurts real people. Put an extra log on the fire, curl up in your favorite chair, and meet the family."--Polly Whitney, author of the "Ike and Abby" mysteries
