Ray Walsh Curious Book Review

...for those of you who love to read mysteries and can’t find any good working class ones…especially featuring REAL working class characters AND men who aren’t sexist or racist...Lenny Moss, the union steward hero of these books is someone I would have loved to have been able to work beside at the Milwaukee Road Railroad...Tim Sheards' fourth book is the most exciting and unnerving Lenny Moss mystery to date.

Sue Doro Pride & A Paycheck

Here's a page flipper, a murder mystery set in a hospital where the invisible, everyday workers are the key...Lenny Moss, a custodian and union steward, is at the center of the action as he and his colleagues take on bosses...corporate downsizing and union busting to fiigure out who killed a beautiful nurse. Here's a great read, a complicated mystery, good friends, comradeship in hard times, and union workers shown in full humanity.
