By R. A. Harold ’73

Published Jan. 21, 2016

When, in the spring of 1906, a fiery populist Congressman is found beaten to death, Dade Wyatt reluctantly agrees to investigate. The primary suspect is a senior conservative whom the victim very publicly insulted on the House floor — and who also happens to be the father of Wyatt’s dead wife. Murdered Sleep is a sequel to Harold’s first historical mystery novel, Heron Island.
