DAVID WALTNER-TOEWS discusses and signs
Fear of Landing
(Poisoned Pen, $24.95)


Publishers Weekly said: "Set in the repressive Indonesia of the early 1980s, Waltner-Toews's compelling debut introduces an unlikely detective, Canadian veterinarian Abner Dueck. Dueck's investigation of the suspicious contents of a dead cow's stomach appears to result in the deaths of two friends and puts the vet in the uncomfortable position of trying to find out who killed them in a country where asking questions can lead to a quick burial... Readers will be surprised to find descriptions of animal autopsies as intriguing as political schemes in this powerful and highly original portrait of a particular time and place."
