Synopsis

From the author of Recalculating Truth, Death at the Edge of the Diamond is the story of JON MEGQUIRE, an unsettled young man in search of his future. But his path is anything but straight.

Paul H. Raymer is a building scientist who understands what it means to change paths in life. He has discovered that the best way to tell the tale of killer houses is through the medium of thriller fiction.

Death at the Edge of the Diamond is the first book in the Jon Megquire series. Jon Megquire went to Cape Cod in the summer of 1979 expecting to play baseball in the Cape Cod Baseball League – a stepping stone from college to the big leagues. Major league baseball salaries were about to broach the million dollar per year mark. He expected to be tooling around in his MG Midget. He expected to have fun with his teammates, to build stuff with his contractor host family, and simply enjoy a Cape Cod summer. But then there was LISA PRENCE and the murder in the mansion on the water when the matriarch of the family dies suddenly and Jon’s boss gets blamed for faulty construction practices. The weapon is deadly, invisible, and all too common, but the motive is basic greed tangled up in twisted family relations. Jon feels obliged to get it untangled and reveal the killer.

Paul H. Raymer continues to refine the boundaries of crime fiction, with a novel that is part murder mystery, part coming-of-age story, and part appreciation of the dangers of construction. With the compassion and dark, scientific humor of Michael Crichton and the twisted thriller plotting of Belinda Bauer’s Exit, Death at the Edge of the Diamond is a novel readers will not soon forget. It might save their own lives.
