Autorenporträt
Betty Brandt Passick is an independent author, inspirational speaker, and teacher. She grew up in the small town of Fairbank, Iowa (population 1,000), where few people would expect the idea for a gangster series, yet this is where she drew inspiration for her premier historical crime novel Gangster in Our Midst, Bookkeeper, Lieutenant, and Sometimes Hitman for Al Capone (2017). The novel tells the neglected fact-based story of an Italian-American man who came to her hometown in the 1920s, where he remained off and on for the next sixty years. The author used a unique cross-genre that utilizes elements of fiction and nonfiction to tell the story. Gangster in Our Midst became the first book in her gangster series and won an Indie Book Award. During the pandemic, she returned to 'Oxbow' to write The Black Bag of Dr. Wiltse, Murder on the Prairie (2021), which tells an earlier piece of the gangster story - the backstory of the family who built Hotel Wiltse, a prominent setting in Gangster in Our Midst . Dr. Wiltse is attracted to murder investigations and finds his black bag allows him into places where others may not go. He soon finds himself at the center of horrific murders. The Black Bag of Dr. Wiltse also won an Indie Book award. A third novel in the series will follow in early 2025.
