About the AuthorDon Sawyer has authored more than ten books. These include the award-winning young adult novel, Where the Rivers Meet, and the acclaimed non-fiction account of his first teaching experience in rural Newfoundland, Tomorrow Is School. Don is an educator and writer who has travelled and worked in West Africa and the Caribbean as well as with First Nations communities in Canada. He lives in Salmon Arm, British Columbia. Recent ReviewsI thoroughly enjoyed both books. One night I stayed up to 2:30 in the morning, which is way past my bedtime, just to see who did it. They are both real page turners! You are going to attract people with these who don't normally buy books, as well as appeal to young adults and adult learners. I can see why students scoop them up! Even though they are darned good detective stories with believable characters and situations, they manage to stay light. They are just plain fun to read. Tom Wayman |

About the BookFarley's Bog. A giant developer sees it not as an irreplaceable wetland, but as a prime shopping centre site. And lawyer Daffy Abbott, Toronto PI Stitch Robinson's best friend, is determined to stop them. A familiar clash between environmentalists and developers turns nasty when a town councillor changes his vote to allow the development to go forward. And then disappears. What begins as a missing person investigation for Stitch turns into a murder. And that's just the beginning, as Stitch is drawn into a murky – and dangerous – world of money laundering, offshore banking, thugs and strippers.
