Weisberg, M.D., joined Dave Warner on an episode of the Small Town Life Podcast to discuss his new book, 'A Second Shot:  The Pursuit of Justice in Maryland's Oldest Cold Case Murder.'In 1971, Montgomery County Deputy Sheriff James Tappen Hall was gunned down outside a Maryland country club. The case went cold—no suspect, no answers, no closure.Fifty years later, cold case detectives reopened the investigation and identified a suspect whose shocking confession revealed a detail never released to the public: Hall was shot twice.A Second Shot by Dr. Michael Weisberg is a gripping true crime story of justice delayed but not denied—and a deeply personal tale of second chances for both a grieving family and the author himself.On top of all that, there's a connection to Little Falls.

In their new noir novels, authors Joseph Finder and Jo Nesbø choose small towns as the settings for dark plotlines. First, Finder's The Oligarch's Daughter follows a man named Paul who has built a new life under a new name in New Hampshire. He's on the run from a Russian oligarch, who happens to be his father-in-law. In today's episode, Finder speaks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly about the difficulty of disappearing in today's era of surveillance technology, the difference between typical wealth and oligarch wealth, and how the Russian oligarch class' status has shifted under President Vladimir Putin. Then, one of the protagonists in Nesbø's Blood Ties is Roy, a 35-year-old mass murderer who's ready to start a family. Nesbø says his challenge was to make Roy someone readers could root for. In today's episode, the author speaks with NPR's Kelly about a piece of advice he received from Christopher Nolan, the way small towns hold secrets, and how writing lyrics prepared him to write novels.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

On this episode of Small Town Life, host Dave Warner interviews author William L. Kidder, who just completed the book 'Defending Fort Stanwix.' It's a story of the New York Frontier during the American Revolution. The book focuses on the successful defense of Fort Stanwix, located in what is today Rome, New York. Fort Stanwix played an important role in the 1777 Saratoga campaign, which resulted in the capture of British forces led by General John Burgoyne. This campaign is widely considered to be a major turning point in the American Revolution. Burgoyne's surrender raised Patriot morale and contributed to the formation of the alliance with France, which contributed greatly to victory in the War for Independence. In the epilogue, Kidder sketches the postwar lives of some of the fort's prominent defenders, outlines the fort's decommissioning and fall into ruin, and describes its late twentieth-century reconstruction and designation as a national monument. As Kidder says in the interview, you can pick up copies of the book at the Fort Plain Free Library, or you can pre-order it on Amazon. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/studio25/support
