Al Blanchard has agreed to do a program for the Friends of the Turner Library in Randolph this April. Since I'd not heard of him as a mystery writer, it was clearly time to be introduced.Murder At Walden Pond kept me interested from the beginning never quite figuring who was the culprit......so I stayed with it. All of a sudden 2/3 through the book, I found I could not put it down! Everything was happening so fast, I found myself reading faster. Al Blanchard now joins my library of Robert Parker and James Patterson! A great read.
I never knew my teacher had so much talent.

Al Blanchard was my social studies teacher last year, and I just got around to reading his book. Wow. That's just about all I can say. This guy is good. Its amazing how much Asher related to Mr. Blanchard! I highly reccommend this book.
Great Author

An easy read, and he kept the interest right to the end. He is a great author with an intriguing character. I can't wait to read the next book!!
A New Friend

A great read. Blanchard has created a believable, reluctant hero in Steve Asher. I judge mysteries by how much fun it is to hang out with the detective. Asher joins Spencer, Scudder, Gunther, Kinsey, and Carlotta as welcomed company. I look forward to the next time I can teach, listen to tunes, and escape danger with my new friend Steve Asher.
