Meet author William Turner. William will be chatting with me about his book, A Murder in Our Midst.

About the book:

The historical mystery, “A Murder in Our Midst,” is a 1950’s era novel by Billy Turner that blends period flavor with the race-related themes of Walter Mosley as well as the classic twists and turns of an Agatha Christie novel.

A handwritten letter arrives on the desk of decorated Scotland Yard detective Sir Robert Winchell.  It’s from renowned oil magnate Raymond Beevant, claiming that somebody is trying to kill him.  As a confidant of the Queen, knighted for his service, Winchell has grown accustomed to powerful people seeking his council.

Except this is different.

Winchell always knew that to have a friend was to be one.  But back when he entered Harvard as man of color in the 1950’s, he wasn’t sure how many friends he’d make – if any.  It was Raymond Beevant who proved him wrong in more ways than he could imagine.  Rushing to Beevant’s estate, Winchell discovers that Raymond has suddenly passed away.  His demise is about to test how far Winchell will go for his dearest friend.

About the author:

William Turner spent his formative years in New England. He was educated in the private, parochial school system, and is presently retired from State service (State of California), as a supervisor. He has one son (Ontonio), and three grandchildren. William now lives in Lancaster, California.
