The Dearborn Terrorist Plot

“No one else working today crafts such fully-realized characters and puts them through so much strife.”
—Christopher Black, Fahrenheit Press

"I was weaned on Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett, so I'm delighted to add Robb White's private eye novels to my library. I've become a big, big fan!"
- Hayes Brandwell, THE POLEMICIST POST

How does a 27-year-old ex-cop trying to make it as a private eye intersect with a social misfit seaman with anger management problems? That is the subject of an unreleased FBI report about an attempted terrorist act aboard a Great Lakes freighter in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan ... and it is the spine-tingling story told in THE DEARBORN TERRORIST PLOT, the main story in this new Haftmann collection. You'll like it (and the 4 accompanying short stories).

Robb White lives in Northeastern Ohio. Many of his stories and novels feature private investigator Thomas Haftmann:  Haftmann’s Rules (2011), Saraband for a Runaway (2013),  Nocturne for Madness (2015), and Doggerel for Dead Whores (New Pulp, 2019). Thomas Haftmann, Private Eye (2017) is a collection of 15 stories. In 2019, White was nominated for a Derringer. A crime novel, The Russian Heist, won Thriller Magazine’s Best Novel of 2019 award, and a short story, “Inside Man,” was selected for inclusion in Best American Mystery Stories 2019.  A collection of his revenge stories was selected by the Independent Fiction Alliance as a Truly Best Independent Book of 2022.
