Murder at the Streamside and Murder at the Reservoir

Ward Eastman is back. Norman Van Valkenburgh's surveyor-sleuth (the only surveyor in American mystery fiction) once again follows clues to unravel decades-old murders, this time in the Esopus Valley during construction of the Ashokan Reservoir and in the Millbrook Valley before the coming of the Pepacton Reservoir. Murder at the Streamside and Murder at the Reservoir are mystery novellas in one volume and mark the fifth and sixth Ward Eastman stories published by Purple Mountain Press following Murder in the Catskills, Mayhem in the Catskills, and Mischief in the Catskills, and Murder in the Shawangunks.
