A.E.H. Veenman
“I decided, long ago, back-room negotiations with a nine iron and a pen, witness tampering, and suppression of evidence weren’t for me. That’s
what was expected of an independent lawyer hired by Louis Fernoza.

I wanted the corner office overlooking a
cityscape, the fine car and house, and the ability to sleep at night with a clear conscience. I’d say I achieved it all but not without a price.”
A.E.H. Veenman, Dial QR for Murder

Theasa Tuohy
“They both start with a B. Do you think Baudelaire sounds like Bernhardt?" Her niece eyed her for a moment, then shook her head. "Mommy always says you say the strangest things.”
Theasa Tuohy, Mademoiselle le Sleuth
