In Presumption of Guilt (Minotaur Books), a jackhammer uncovers a skeleton while demolishing a concrete warehouse floor. From there, Joe Gunther and his Vermont Bureau of Investigation team of Sammie Martens, Willy Kunkle, and Lester Spinney soon ID the body and the story unfolds, weaving in history about the construction of the Yankee nuclear power plant in the late 1970s. Before long, the team is investigating not just the old case but a new murder – begging the question of whether the two are linked.

Library Journal recommended Presumption of Guilt, “In his latest Joe Gunther outing (after The Company She Kept), Mayor never fails to provide a solid police procedural combined with oddball characters and updates on the personal lives of his officers.” And called Mayer’s latest, “A satisfying addition to a superior mystery series.”

Archer Mayor has written 26 bestselling Joe Gunther novels. Over the past 30 years, he has worked variously (or continues to work) as a firefighter/EMT, a police office, and a death investigator for Vermont’s Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. A Yale graduate, scholar, editor, researcher, photographer, Mayor has also worked as a political advance man, and a medical illustrator. He is a winner of the Vermont Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts. The New York Times calls Archer Mayor “The boss man on procedures.” Booklist: “Mayor’s Joe Gunther novels are among the best cop stories being written today.”

Early Praise for Book 27, PRESUMPTION OF GUILT, by Archer Mayor:

“Presumption of Guilt is another fine entry in a wonderful series—well plotted, as always, and featuring one of the best ensemble casts in the genre…. A reappearance of the titular character from Tag Man (2011) will seem to fans like a reunion with an old friend.” —Booklist
