    The Midwest Book Review said "The Muted Mermaid is an amazing novel" and they were right! It's set in Nashville and its sequel, Shaved Ice, is also. This is a great chance to meet the author and learn why he chose to set the action in the Music City. Collapse

    Del Staecker is a new writer on the mystery novel scene. I expect to see him follow in the steps of his fellow Citadel Graduate: Pat Conroy. The school has produced some outstanding writers and Del is now one of them. You will see movies being made from his books. Expect to see the cameras in Nashville for his new book "Shaved Ice," when it will undoubtedly be made into a movie. Show up at the reading and be one of those who can say: I saw him when. Collapse
