The Colonel Tallant Mysteries feature a retired military man who finds himself investigating crimes and dangerous situations. The series combines military background with traditional mystery plotting.
The first two books appeared in 1977 and 1978, with the series resuming nearly two decades later with two more entries in 1995 and 1996. This gap reflects Christopher Nicole’s habit of returning to characters and settings after long intervals.
