Synopsis

Gerry Boyle , the author of Lifeline , has spent most of the past fifteen years wandering around Maine, mostly in small mill towns and cities in the central part of the state. Born in Chicago, he was raised in Rhode Island. He went to Maine from Rhode Island in 1974 to attend Colby College. Boyle left the state to work as a letter carrier in Providence, R.I., and for a brief stint in book publishing in New York, but returned to Maine to work as a newspaper reporter, editor, and columnist. Boyle's column now appears in the Central Maine Morning Sentinel in Waterville and the Kennebec Journal in Augusta. The column tells about people in courts and police custody, on the streets and stoops, or just caught in the throes of everyday life. He has received many awards from Maine and New England press associations. He lives in an early 19th century house in a historic village in Central Maine with his wife, Mary, their three children, a bunch of cats and a dog. His previous mystery novels, Bloodline and Deadline , earned a number of glowing reviews.
