Buryin’ Barry Sam Blackman
Novels and Reviews
Ten mystery novels (eight adult and two young adult) are in print and available through all bookstores and online sellers. Some titles are now eBook and audio versions.
Novels in the two ongoing adult series include
FATAL UNDERTAKING:
“de Castrique’s unassuming but commanding prose style is comparable to James Lee Burke and Margaret Maron.” -Library Journal STARRED REVIEW
“Filled with ample wit, wry humor, and multiple plot twists, this is a fine place to start for anyone who has yet to meet Buryin’ Barry and a welcome visit for those who have.” -Publishers Weekly
THE FITZGERALD RUSE:
“At the start of de Castrique’s winning second Sam Blackman mystery, the former U.S. military CID officer and his lover, Nakayla Robertson, are setting up a detective agency in Asheville, N.C. Their eccentric first client, Ethel Barkley, wants them to retrieve a lockbox she claims contains a purloined F. Scott Fitzgerald manuscript... Readers will hope to see a lot more of the book’s amiable characters, in particular, Sam and Nakayla, whose comfortable banter lends the story much of its charm.” - Publishers Weekly
