Five John Dunning mysteries beginning with Booked to Die feature Cliff Janeway, bookseller and ex-Denver cop. His other books include Two O'Clock Eastern Wartime,  a mystery about radio in 1942, On the Air, an  extensive encyclopedia of old-time radio, a novel about Denver in the 1920s, and three other earlier mysteries. We only carry a few of John's books, but you should be able to find many of them in your favorite new or used book store in either hardback, paperback, audio, or electronic format.
