"Both a fitting finale and locale for a right-fringe political wacko." One Ohio recipe is included.

                                           -- The Delphos (OH) Herald

​

An Ohio "survivor" previews MURDER IN Any "C" City in Ohio:

"In, sadly, the last trip of his Prepostional Murders, Ed Wendover has achieved an ultimate among whodunits that will leave readers feeling as if they had tumbled over Reichenbach Fall...or at least Big Spring Hallow Waterfall down in (Ohio's) Hocking Hills.

​

"MURDER IN Any "C" City in Ohio begins with confusion over a body floating in a stretch of a bandonned canal. (The confusion arises because the obsolete canal separates the jurisdictions of three counties and the City of Delphos, Ohio.) This mystery deepens when the body cannot be identified except for a wad of undeliverable mail. Abruptly the plot shits to Colonoscopy, Ohio, and a new cast of conspiriacists or just chuckle-headed characters in dire need of mass colonoscopy prep. The rear of a forlorn, vacant K-Mart becomes the next crime scene, with plenty of evidence...but unseen corpses.

​

"Who is responsible? Why are there canals in Ohio, but no cannoli? Can any eatery ever outdo Toledo's Tony Packo's? And will a horde of historians confirm during the 7th inning stretch of a Mud Hens home game precisely who won the Great Ohio-Michigan War of 1836? These 'Mysteries of Ohio' never unfold upon Wendover's pages, but the book is still riotous fun.

                                           -- Kenneth Arbogast

                              Ken, describes himself as an Ohio "survivor", and boasts that he is: "The author of such unheralded classics as: Whinesburg, Ohio, an autopsy of the state's tragic politics; Sorrow Ledge, a novel of post-bellum Maine; and, his Coast Guard mystery series featuring Special Agent Marty Galloway - all now on remainder at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and booksellers nowhere."
