A Joe Gunther Mystery
by Archer MayorThis article relates to St Albans Fire
When asked
why he writes what he writes,
Mayor says he's boiled down his
answer to, 'ignorance and
curiosity - I am driven to find
out more about the world I
inhabit, but about which I will
always know too little.'
In
addition to writing a novel each
year, Mayor also finds time to
be a town constable, an interior
attack fire fighter, moderator
at the annual town meeting, on
the board of trustees of a
nearby hospital, captain the
local Rescue Squad, and has
applied to join the state's
assistant medical examiner
program this fall! For more
