Something I Keep Upstairs, Paperback

"An assured mystery with an engaging narrator and a distinctive cast." -- Kirkus Reviews

Coleman Cooper is a troubled young man who can never get anything right-not even his own suicide.

And when he is sent to an open-door mental health facility in a small New England village to get his life back on track, his journey darkens even further: someone starts killing the psychiatrists, one by one.

After taking a job tending bar at a local country inn-the heart of the quirky little town where everyone knows everyone and grudges can last for fifty years-Coleman unwittingly finds himself at the center of the investigation, even a suspect.

Yet as villagers dread news of the next victim and police come up with exactly nothing, it is Coleman, and he alone, who discovers the twisted path to the killer's identity-and a door to a new life.
