A delightfully retro murder mystery, set in the Blue Ridge mountain town of Fernglade, NC in the late 1970s. The Last of the Swindlers follows NY book editor Oliver Swindler as he returns to his home town as editor of the local newspaper, The Fernglade Republican. Within a day of his arrival, he encounters murder, fraud, deceit, and corruption, and as soon as Oliver begins to solve one mystery, another layer of crime emerges. Author Peter Loewer is renowned as The Wild Gardener, and he brings his erudition and wit to this garden of mysterious delights.
