One of my colleagues who follows mystery lists just forwarded the
following new title to me--another instance of Mark Twain appearing
as a character:

Peter J. Heck (1995) _Death on the Mississippi_

        First in a new series of mysteries starring Mark Twain
        as the detective.  Available in Hardcover and Trade
        Paperback from Berkeley.

Does anyone have more information on this book or series?

Regards,
