The Wake

About the Book

Dead men tell no tales or do they? In New York City, a body has been found floating in the frozen Hudson River. Devoid of any identification, the medical examiner has determined by autopsy that in all probability, a crime has been committed that took place more than fifty years ago.

The body, that of a male is missing a left ear and the inside pocket of a pea coat contains black and white photographs along with a pack of 1952 Topps baseball cards. A classic textbook cold case, is this fact based on fiction or fiction based on fact?

About the Author

I am a returning author to Iuniverse, my previous books are available at the Indian Valley Public Library in Telford, Pa. I was interested in pursuing a lingering question that I had in regards to the 1952 Topps baseball cards that were supposedly discarded out to sea, so many years ago. I currently reside in Souderton, Pa. I am married, a father of three with three grandsons. I am retired and I enjoy writing whenever I am inspired to put pen to paper.
