Author Biography
Author
Susan Stoner, writing as S.L. Stoner, is a native Oregonian who was a labor union lawyer for many years. Like that of her series hero, Sage Adair, Stoner's life has tended toward the adventurous. She's worked in skid road bars, Las Vegas casinos, free clinics, as a prisoners' advocate, psychology center videographer and federal judge's intern. Besides living in Portland, Oregon, Susan has also lived in a forest lean-to, a Sikh home in Singapore, alongside an alligator-infested Louisiana bayou, inside a sweltering Las Vegas tent, in a camper atop a '65 International pick-up truck as well as in a variety of more traditional Houston, Texas, abodes. She was a participant in Portland's original neighborhood movement and has since been involved in citizen activism, like filing and winning a lawsuit to preserve Portland's soon-to-be destroyed historical open reservoirs (one of those "win the battle, lose the war" experiences). She lives with her husband and two dogs in Southeast Portland when they are not traveling or hanging out in the great Cascade range forests. One of her passions is historical research, particularly that involving original source material. She is currently working on the tenth book in the award-winning Sage Adair Historical Mystery series as well as on the first book of a yet-to-be-named new series.

Black Drop is a fast-paced story crafted around Theodore Roosevelt's 1903 visit to Portland, Oregon. The new president has threatened big business and Congress by adopting a progressive program aimed at equalizing wealth and power, reducing abuse of workers, rejecting racial discrimination and preserving the environment. It appears these efforts have triggered an assassination attempt.
Against the backdrop of mounting excitement over the impending presidential visit, Sage Adair and his colorful, like-minded friends race to prevent Roosevelt's murder. And, since life is never simple, Sage also learns of young boys who need rescuing from a horrific fate. As the presidential train and the boys' doom rush ever closer, every crucial answer remains elusive. Once again, actual historical events lie at the core of this fourth book in the fascinating Sage Adair historical mystery series.
