Hot Time in Warm Springs - by Gary G. Russell

GARY G RUSSELL on Oct 17, 2020
In the fourth installment of the Mickey Mathews Mysteries, Mickey and Frank leave my home state of Michigan for exciting adventures in Warm Springs Georgia, as part of the team of federal agents protecting President Franklin Roosevelt while he’s at his Washington escape the “Little White House.” The familiar venues are different, but the intrigue and drama are better than ever. And the plot is more complex, but never confusing and always entertaining. In the end they return to Michigan to await creation of next installment. I have no idea where that will take place, but I’m eager to find out.

Targeting FDR in Warm Springs - by David Hillman

David Hillman on Oct 25, 2020
President Franklin Roosevelt died of natural causes during the second week of a vacation in Warm Springs, Georgia, on April 12, 1945. Warm Springs Mystery, by Jim Sargent, stops three days sooner, instead focusing on the first week of this vacation during which FDR's protectors must thwart various would-be assassins whose success would have shocked the war-weary nation. A savvy novelist-investigator trusted by Roosevelt, Mickey Matthews and his friends Frank Tuttle and Tommy Jefferson have joined the official aides riding to Warm Springs on the train that is pulling the President's bulletproof railcar, the Ferdinand Magellan. The action starts on the ride down and continues for several days as Mickey and his friends assist the President's regular bodyguards in contending with false identities, cleverly disguised assassins, a damsel in need of rescue, more than one wicked woman, and brushes with death. The evocation of the hot Southern town with its colorful cast of locals is pitch-perfect, and the detailed description of the train ride to Warm Springs and later the one back north captures the special aura of mid-century rail travel. Jim Sargent knows the history well and he carefully places his imagined events in the unfilled chinks; so no violation of the historical record occurs in the novel. We see FDR himself in several memorable scenes, and Dr. Sargent, a longtime Roosevelt scholar, perfectly captures the serenity and greatness of this unique President.

An Exciting Read - by Bob Gorman

Bob Gorman on Nov 16, 2020
This latest entry in the Mickey Mathews series is a real humdinger. In the spring of 1945, Mickey and his partner, Frank Tuttle, travel to Warm Springs, Georgia, to stop a variety of nefarious characters - domestic and foreign - who the FBI suspects are intent on assassinating President Franklin Roosevelt while he is residing at the Little White House. Not only is it an exciting read, the location itself will be fascinating to many readers. I have been to Warm Springs on several occasions, even staying at the same hotel where our heroes are lodged, and can attest to the authenticity of place that Jim Sargent has created in his novel. So, if you love a good historical mystery with a strong sense of time and place, Warm Springs Mystery is the book for you!
