THE WINTER SOLSTICE IS COMING

And so is Solstice, the book.

It’s our fist publication since we moved, and it’s a beautiful volume that houses expressive poetry, intimate memoir, and compelling short fiction.

Some of the poets include Colin James, Robert Fleming, and Morgan Golladay. There’s fiction from Maggie Claypool and Mary Salome.

It’s almost time for the winter solstice, and the anthology, Solstice, makes a wonderful gift for friends or family. What’s better than a good read before bed on a cold night?

Winter is on her way… I feel her trying to push in through the gaps in the door.

But we can take solace in our Solstice.

In this hard-boiled adventure we find a young senator Kennedy’s personal and political future at risk when he’s set up to take the fall for a ghastly murder. Working against time, bureaucratic red tape, his own personal demons, and individuals who want him out of the way, Detective Jack Griffin must identify the real killer, assuming he survives long enough.

William F. Crandell returned home from the Vietnam War with a taste for adventure, a skeptic’s eye, and a hundred thousand stories. Awarded a Maryland State Arts Council Individual Artist Award for his private detective novel, Let’s Say Jack Kennedy Killed the Girl, Crandell has published short stories, book reviews, scholarly articles, journalism, state and federal reports, political analyses, and congressional testimony that he presented in Washington hearings. An Ohio native, Crandell received all his degrees at Ohio State University, completing his doctorate in American History with a study of the interaction of McCarthyism and Republican politics. Bill is a former DC speech writer for Veteran’s Affairs.
