About the author
Joe L. Hensley (1926–2007) was an American lawyer and mystery writer. His long career in the legal profession deeply shaped his writing, giving his work a distinctly practical legal perspective in both plot development and characterization. He is best known for his courtroom mystery series set in Indiana, which combines trial proceedings with suspenseful detection and gives his work a personal character poised between legal procedure and narrative tension. His representative work is Now We Are Three. Overall, Hensley's output was not large, and publicly available information about him is limited; our collection holds only one of his works. Even so, he left a recognizable mark on the courtroom mystery subgenre and holds appeal for readers who enjoy legal-themed detective fiction.
