John Billheimer's first novel..."Contrary Blues" started out as a short story about a bus-service scandal in West Virginia mountain country. St. Martin's liked that novel so much, it keeps asking for more.

"As long as people keep reading them," Mr. Billheimer says, "I'll keep turning them out."

"Dismal Mountain" is the third Owen Allison mystery, named for the series' unassuming hero, a transportation expert from California who seems to sort out some entanglement of corruption and murder whenever he returns to his home state of West Virginia....
