Book excerpt: Charles Parmer (1893-1958) knew all the major tracks in the country and his story of horse racing in America, For Gold and Glory, established him as an authority on the subject. In Murder at the Kentucky Derby (1942) he introduced Major Roderick Austen, investigator for the State Racing Commission. Major Austen's job on the eve of Derby Day was to arbitrate the question of ownership of the favorite starter in the great race, Red Moon. Contenders for the horse were a gentleman sportsman whose private life was less illustrious than his public life, a representative of an out-of-town gambling ring whose interests would be served by having the horse lose the race, and a slimy little trainer who had a way with horses but none with honesty. Austen made his decision honestly and justly, but was not successful in preventing a prophesied murder, which, because it involved many people connected with racing, came under his immediate jurisdiction. Austen was so busy that he had no chance to see the Derby run, but he was clever enough to use the radio broadcast of the race to break down the most important witness and obtain information which led to the solution of the murder. "Any racing fan who has witnessed the running of the Kentucky Derby will appreciate immediately on starting this story just how well the author has captured the atmosphere of the Louisville classic. The story opens a few hours before the big race, against a background of hot-dog stands, touts and thousands of milling people tense with the excitement common Derby eve. The entire novel covers a period of only several hours, yet Charles Parmer has crammed into the brief period a murder-mystery rated with the best. There is not a dull moment in Murder at the Kentucky Derby." (1942 review)

Book excerpt: Charlie Hoskins was a self-made man. Born poor as a church mouse, he was relentless in his pursuit of money to the point of being universally hated. Oh, he was admired for his rags-to-riches story. He was admired for being a good businessman. But Charlie never learned tact and made many enemies in the process of realizing his goals. He didn’t care that in order to accomplish his dreams, he trampled on those of others. So it didn’t surprise Josiah Reynolds when someone decided to kill Charlie. The only thing that bothered her was that her lawyer and friend, Shaneika Mary Todd, might have done the dirty deed! Join Josiah as she discovers the truth in a world that hides its secrets among antebellum mansions and million dollar horses grazing in emerald pastures. This is the world of the Bluegrass . . . a world of wealth, privilege, and now murder!

Book excerpt: Bourbon, Distilled in Murder and MayhemWhat's more Kentucky than that? A Boston debutante joins the Appalachian Frontier Nursing Service and saves a wounded moonshiner Two young malcontents burglarize the home of their bourbon-magnate employer, leading to a twist of fate Bourbon with a Splash of Mystery from the Derby Rotten Scoundrels is an anthology that celebrates Kentucky's finest spirit: Bourbon. Ranging from historical adventure to gritty realism, the eighteen crime stories included in this anthology are all fermented in the history and culture of Kentucky bourbon, distilled through the imaginations of our authors. Interwoven with the stories are articles covering the history of bourbon, from Prohibition, moonshining, and medicinal alcohol, to profiles of distilleries and the booming Whiskey Row district in downtown Louisville. Who Are the Derby Rotten Scoundrels? We are an eclectic group of writers (and readers) who get together to share our writing. Our group was formed in 1992, starting as primarily a reading club. Over time we became more focused on writers, especially new writers, and how to help them hone their skills and get published. In 2004, the chapter published its first anthology, Derby Rotten Scoundrels, short stories of murder and crime centered around the Kentucky Derby. Two years later, a second anthology, Low Down and Derby, was published.
