Could something like murder happen in Fergus Falls-a quiet Minnesota town known for its Scandinavian heritage and great lake fishing? Yah, you betcha! Every August Dr. George Gherkin, the Fergus Falls... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I loved reading this book. I grew up in Fergus Falls and it was so much fun reading about places I knew. Actually, I got this book right before I want to Fergus Falls for a visit and I was seeing the sights. I would sit down and read a few pages and what do you know, they were talking about things I had just seen. It was a great mystery, where everyone had a reason to want the the President dead.

Do you like Garrison Keillor? Do you like Agatha Christie? Do you like lutefisk? Well, I hate lutefisk, but I loved Palmer Knutson and "Death Before Dinner." If Morse and Maigret and Sam Spade were all a little younger, they could tag along and watch Knutson move deftly through the quirky Scandinavian sub-culture portrayed by Anderson with warmth and wit, and, incidentally, an authenticity which outstrips "Fargo."
