Donut Holes for the Soul (2025) is Timothy A Cotton’s first novel, marking a shift from the non-fiction essay collections that established his reputation. After three books of real-life stories from his career as a Bangor, Maine police detective, Cotton turned to fiction with this book.
The title carries the same sense of humor that made Cotton’s Facebook posts and non-fiction books popular. Readers who enjoyed The Detective in the Dooryard and his other essay collections may find a familiar voice here, applied to an invented story rather than real events.
