About the Author
William D. Andrews spent summers in Maine with his family for eighteen years until he could find a job to justify a permanent move. That happened in 1989 when he became president of Westbrook College in Portland. The merger of Westbrook and the University of New England freed him to pursue a lifelong interest in writing, supplemented by freelance editing and consulting for nonprofit organizations. He has published three textbooks on management communication. He earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Pittsburgh and a master's degree and doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania.
Praise For…
Breaking Ground is more of a psychological mystery harkening back to the classics of the genre. There's suspects, motives, and most of the suspects also had opportunity. So, who murdered Mary Ellen?
You'll need to read Breaking Ground to find out but the well-developed characters and setting will make it very much worth your while.
