The Deadly Menace Mystery," a new book by Jeffrey Kettering, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co. Inc.

The book tells the story of Dr. Alexa Bryce Winchester, who heads back home to her small town to see her dying father. However, the unexpected death of another sends her on an adventure she could never have imagined. What starts out as an odd series of deaths in the town turns into an international crisis that draws in the president of the United States and an old Vietnam veteran with a promise to end the lives of those responsible for these crimes.

Kettering, 71, now retired, graduated from Elizabethtown High School in 1971 and took some college courses. He has held various jobs, his last being a bookkeeper at K & F Limited Men's Clothing Store in Harrisburg from 1985 to 1995. He is an active member of his church, serving as a greeter and Scripture reader, and volunteers at a local food bank.
