Produktbeschreibung

Progressive History with a Mystery Twist

Arson, murder, kidnapping and false accusations abound in this seventh book of the Sage Adair series which crafts its early twentieth century stories around actual historical events and people. In Slow Burn what begins as a simple assignment--helping the city's firefighters unionize, catapults Sage into firefighting's front lines and into solving the deeper mystery of who is burning down the city and why..This fast-paced action mystery has been likened to the Wild, Wild West meeting Howard Zinn--where the battle is frequently against that time's 1%.

Autorenporträt

Author Susan Stoner, writing as S.L. Stoner, is a native Oregonian who worked for many years as a labor union lawyer. Like that of her series hero, Sage Adair, Stoner's life has tended toward the adventurous. She's worked in skid road bars, Las Vegas casinos, free clinics and as a prisoners' advocate, psychology center videographer and federal judge's intern. Besides living in Portland, Oregon, Susan has also lived in a forest lean-to, a Sikh home in Singapore, alongside an alligator-infested Louisiana bayou, inside a sweltering Las Vegas tent, in a camper atop a '65 International pick-up truck as well as in a variety of more traditional abodes. She was an early participant in Portland's original neighborhood movement and has since been involved in citizen activism, like filing and winning a lawsuit to preserve Portland's soon-to-be destroyed historical open reservoirs (one of those "win the battle, lose the war" experiences). She lives with her husband and two dogs in Southeast Portland when they are not traveling or hanging out in the great Cascade range forests. One of her passions is historical research, particularly that involving original source material.
