4.0 out of 5 stars Lovable Detective Aug 7 2008
By Betty K TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Hardcover
If you like your mysteries on the "cozy" side rather than hard core, you'll love "Why Casey Had to Die". The hero, Harry Bronson, is a retired detective who suddenly finds himself in the middle of a case that twenty years ago he felt he mishandled. It was the one time in his career he didn't bend the rules and he's been sorry ever since.

Ms. Hayden has a great sense of humour and her writing and her hero reflect that fact. It's just pleasant to read a mystery without a lot of graphic sex and four letter words and that delights you with a chuckle now and then. I'm ready for the next Harry Bronson mystery anytime it's in my bookstore.

4.0 out of 5 stars Why Casey had to Die Sep 2 2007
By Anne K. Edwards - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
If you enjoy mysteries with twists and characters who will beckon you
farther and farther along the road of intrigue, you will really enjoy this
tale by talented author L. C. Hayden. An unexpected villain and twists in
the plot offer a fun read to any mystery buff.

Harry Bronson was forced into early retirement from the police force because he bent the rules to solve cases. He took only one thing with him when he left the force, copies of the file on his first murder case, the one that went unsolved.

Never satisfied with the way the case ended, he promised Casey's mother he'd continue doing his best to solve it. Now, retired, he and his wife take a vacation, only he has taken a job as consultant to a mystery group that plays at solving murders at their annual meeting. How was he to know someone arranged his presence there, that the murder to be played out was very recognizable as that of Casey?

Nevertheless, that is what he ran into when he arrived at the meeting and
was almost immediately accused of murder himself. Wondering what was really going on, Bronson sets out to find the answers with murder and gameplaying working against him.

A fresh, well plotted tale peopled with characters you will enjoy meeting,
even the baddies. After reading this book, you will be looking for other
tales by this talented author. I know I will. Enjoy.

WHY CASEY HAD TO DIE has a mystery convention, a cold case, a savvy retired detective, great character development and a mystery that keeps you guessing. I enjoyed this book immensely. I highly recommend it.
