Dead of the Day
A soggy April has hit New Haven, Connecticut-along with an unidentified body in the harbor. The strange fact that there were bee stings on the floater gives New Haven Herald police reporter Annie Seymour an intriguing excuse to put off her profile of the new police chief-a piece that becomes a lot more interesting when the subject is gunned down.

But this is only the beginning of a killer exposŽ-because as she connects the dots between the John Doe, the police chief, and the city's struggling immigrant population, Annie's drawing a line between herself and someone who doesn't want her to learn the truth, or live to report it...

"A delightful dance with the devil: dangerous, dark, romantic."
-- Reed Farrel Coleman

"Olson is the real thing...a natural storyteller with a lucid style and a wonderful sense of place."
--Laura Lippman
