What a fun series!

Malcolm Shuman continues to amaze me. Mr. Shuman's latest entry into his Dr. Alan Graham mystery series is another winner. I like the way that Mr. Shuman intertwines legends/rumors into a modern murder mystery. In this installment, the author uses the legend of Jim Bowie and that big knife he carried to the Alamo. I learned several facts about Jim Bowie during a very enjoyable read. I've always been a history buff, so this series is extra fun for me. You don't have to be into history to enjoy Past Dying or any of Mr. Shuman's other books. His characters are fun, Alan and Penny (who is back from her Mexico trip) are very likable, and sometimes you want to smack them for behaving like children. This is the way of new relationships; sometimes they are a bit rocky. That makes these characters more believable and human. Past Dying has all the elements of a good fun mystery. Take a little time out to enjoy this new mystery series. I think you'll like it. I look forward to more installments in this series. I'm sure that Mr. Shuman will have another fun and entertaining one coming soon. He has a wealth of events to pick from in the Baton Rouge area and Louisiana. Thank you Mr. Shuman for a very fun read.
