Murder at Camp Tera

By William Rainbolt

Regardless of historical period and circumstances, people still murder on a regular basis for countless reasons-and in times of crisis, like the Great Depression, they murder even more often... On a June morning in 1934, NY State Police Sergeant Dave Lewin stands on the bank of a calm lake in the Lower Hudson Valley, looking at the petite body of Hannah Doyle, a young staff member at a nearby training camp for destitute women from New York City. A single blow had shattered Hannah's skull as she waited on the shore for her lover. Sergeant Lewin conducts a tenacious investigation-not only of the murder, but of other dark secrets surrounding a German psychoanalyst with ties to upheavals rocking Germany with the advent of Nazism. Set during the Great Depression, Murder at Camp Tera is a riveting historical murder mystery that weaves together several strands of stories encompassing the last month of World War I some sixteen years before, an epidemic of shell shock resulting from those closing days of the War, and a country still gasping from the Great Depression's chokehold.
