About this product
Product Information
It's 1956 and Hemingway has spent much of the year at his home in Key West, hiding from tourists and autograph hunters. But a friend's sudden death rouses Papa from his idyll. To say the cuase of death is suspicious is to put it lightly. It's not every day that a part-time smuggler is impailed on a harpoon.

Praise for HEMINGWAY DEADLIGHTS "What would a genre mystery by Ernest Hemingway read like? Say, a story about a heavy-drinking, womanizing, professional frustrated amateur sleuth in Key West and Cuba? Great characters, great setup--what's that, you say?Hemingway Deadlightsis notbyhim, butabouthim? Wow. Just, wow. You could've fooled me." --Laurie R. King "Atkinson packsHemingway Deadlightswith hilarious dialogue, irreverent literary shoptalk, and so much excellent sun-soaked atmosphere that you'd best consume it along with a few pitchers of something cool."-Ed Park, author of PERSONAL DAYS "Michael Atkinson has crafted a hard-boiled mystery drenched in Tequila and scorched by the blazing Key West sun. That Ernest Hemingway, with his volatile temper, ready fists and emotional entanglements, would take on a murder investigation when one of his drinking buddies is mysteriously killed, makes for the most fascinating amateur sleuth to hit the pages since the invention of the gin and tonic. Atkinson mixes in politics, Cuban revolutionaries, crime bosses, and literary giants of the twentieth century with a deft hand, creating a vision of Papa Hemingway pursuing a seemingly lost cause in the winter of his life." --James R. Benn, author of BILLY BOYLE, Praise for HEMINGWAY DEADLIGHTS "What would a genre mystery by Ernest Hemingway read like? Say, a story about a heavy-drinking, womanizing, professional frustrated amateur sleuth in Key West and Cuba? Great characters, great setup--what's that, you say? Hemingway Deadlights is not by him, but about him? Wow. Just, wow. You could've fooled me." --Laurie R.

Benn, author of Billy Boyle "This mystery certainly gave me everything I wanted in spades....A terrific book." -- Mystery News Magazine "Atkinson gives us Hemingway on the verge of serious decline: the booze taking its toll, the writing stalled, the paranoia that would eventually lead to his suicide beginning to assert itself. All that gives the tale a nice psychodramatic edge as Hemingway jumps from Key West to Havana, dodging CIA stooges and assorted gangsters, and even spending a drunken evening chugging rum with a couple of revolutionaries named Fidel and Che." -- Deadly Pleasures
