The Sherman Letter, by Leonard Palmer, is as much a window to the past as it is a light on the path of present day America. Well written, thought provoking, and imaginative prose bring to life a true mystery for the mind and the senses. I don't read the mystery genre that often, but The Sherman Letter was a great departure from the norm for me. 5 stars and a big thumbs up!
