About this title

Review:

"Welsh-Huggins (does) a masterful job with the book, an entertaining, easy-to-read tale worthy of Robert B. Parker."--Columbus Dispatch

"Like any other good detective novel, Fourth Down and Out has murder, dames, snappy dialogue and a tough, weary protagonist. This most entertaining fiction debut shows that noir can come in scarlet and gray."--Akron Beacon-Journal

"With a wealth of Columbus-area color, an intriguing private detective with a shady past and more twists than many of Ohio's back roads, Fourth Down and Out represents a top-notch opener for a writer who seems destined to score big."--Richmond Times-Dispatch

"Fourth Down And Out is a tall, frosty stein of Middle-American noir, backed with a healthyshot of wry."--Bill Osinski, author of Guilty by Popular Demand and Ungodly

"Reporter Welsh-Huggins's...debut, the first in a series, introduces Andy Hayes, a Columbus, Ohio, PI, and--for reasons explained late in the story--perhaps the most reviled former football player in Ohio State history.... The author's use of iconic Columbus landmarks and lots of Buckeye lore will appeal to O.S.U. fans."-- Publishers Weekly

"Midwesterners and football fans will find the most enjoyment in Fourth Down and Out, but even for private eye fans at large, this is a promising new series with a lot of charm."
--Black Heart Magazine
