Hemingway on the Case: The Mystery Novels of Michael Atkinson
August 3, 2010 by Scene of the Crime | Edit
Film critic and novelist Michael Atkinson is the author of the Hemingway Mysteries series. The first in the series, Hemingway Deadlights, finds “Hemingway on the verge of serious decline: the booze taking its toll, the writing stalled, the paranoia that would eventually lead to his
suicide beginning to assert itself,” as a Booklist critic
noted. The novel takes Hemingway from Key West to Cuba to solve the
harpooning death of a fisherman friend in a novel that “deftly mixes
fact and fiction with graphic sex and violence in a mystery sure to
please Hemingway aficionados,” according to Publishers Weekly.
