SARATOGA SPRINGS — Saratoga Springs author David K. Wilson will release “Leave Dead Enough Alone” on April 7. It’s the eighth installment of his Sam Lawson mystery series, and his tenth novel overall.
The new mystery picks up where the award-winning “Murder in Spa City”—set in Saratoga Springs—left off, following private investigator Sam Lawson and his wife Carla as they return home to Texas.
But home isn’t exactly peaceful. What begins as a straightforward missing persons case in rural East Texas quickly unravels into a web of small-town secrets, corruption, and murder. Sam soon realizes he’s stumbled onto secrets someone will kill to protect. Alongside Carla—a razor-sharp medical examiner holding her own in a good ol’ boy’s world—Sam must untangle a mystery before it makes him the next victim.
“Readers who discovered Sam through ‘Murder in Spa City’ will finally get to see his home turf,” Wilson said. “East Texas is a big place with a lot of stories to tell—and Sam’s small-town roots are a far cry from the Saratoga Springs horse racing scene.”
Wilson—who grew up in the small town of Lindale, Texas—has called Saratoga Springs home for years. An advertising creative director, ghostwriter, and produced screenwriter, he has built a regional following via the award-winning Sam Lawson series.
“Leave Dead Enough Alone” will be available at local bookstores, Amazon.com, and other online retailers.
