Home Author Archive For Librarians Authors: Get Included Sheldon Russell Dear Reader, Hook Runyon is unlike any protagonist you've ever read. A book collector and moonshine aficionado, this 1940s one-armed railroad detective takes cues from his gut and has an unusual view of humanity and morality. In THE INSANE TRAIN, my follow-up to the acclaimed The Yard Dog, hobo-tackling Hook is summoned to Baldwin Insane Asylum. The boys' ward burned to the ground, killing more than 30 youth. The only solution is to relocate the survivors to Fort Supply, Oklahoma. They need Hook's help to transport the group. The passengers' mental states, however, are the least of Hook's problems, as several of them wind up dead. ". . . outstanding. . . Russell imbues even bit characters with personality." – Starred review, Publishers Weekly   "Russell's engrossing mystery casts light on a little-known corner of American history."
