The Author of His Demise: A Mackenzie Quinn Mystery

A Note on this Book

A Note on this Book

Welcome to Book One of the Mackenzie Quinn Mystery Series! While The Author of His Demise is the first full-length Mackenzie Quinn novel, there are also two shorter novels in the series, which take place before this book: Death Clause and By Book or by Crook.

If you haven’t read either of these shorts yet, no worries. This novel can be read on its own with minimal spoilers.

A Note on the Text:I am a Canadian author, and this series takes place in Canada. As a result, this book uses Canadian English spelling (which is basically a mishmash of British and American English). So strap yourself in for seemingly superfluous ‘U’s and other Canadian quirks. (Obligatory Canadian apologies in advance.)
