About the Book (Excerpts & Info)
A sculptor in the film studios, Hart St. James, wakes up with a bloody head next to Hollywood's most luminous film star. Kelly Moran is dead, her skull brutally crushed and her eyes taped open. The unlikely relationship between a movie star and a studio craftsman has not survived their first night together. Why?
St. James, a Vietnam veteran, is determined to find out who and why by following the slender, treacherous threads of a trail that ultimately leads to a professional assassin and the very inner workings of the federal government.
Deftly constructed at 388 pages, KillRod: The Cross of Lorraine Murders is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the Mystery category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, KillRod meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $15.95.

About the Author
Bill Ison was raised in the green timber country of Northern Wisconsin just before the Great Depression. He had his first jackknife by age seven and his first .22 single shot rifle when he was eight. His solitary existence led him to learn wood carving and reading. After spending years in the corporate world including a ten-year stint as part of Mattel's marketing team, he turned to the Hollywood film studios where he became a sculptor creating many of the set pieces seen by millions of moviegoers.
During all of this time, Bill was writing essays, short stories and several aborted novels. He never attempted to have any of his writings published although some of his short stories provided the story background for advertising some of Mattel's toys.
KillRod is his first novel written specifically to be published. Naturally, the lead character, Hart St. James, is a sculptor in the film studios. Well, they say you should write about what you know.
