Callahan's personal life and traits are carefully integrated Well, "The Cana Diversion" (Raven House, 1982) did not win an Edgar but an Shamus from the Private Eye Writer of America. In this novel, Brock Callahan investigates the murder of his fellow private detective Joe Puma. A pity to say that Bill Gault passed away on December 27, 1995. Sorry I have deleted the obituary of Gault from my web site.
