Wimauma, FL, August 05, 2025 --(PR.com)-- David Schwinger has completed his new book, “Murder Was the Only Option: An Amy Bell Mystery”: a fascinating new installment in the Amy Bell murder mystery series that follows the titular detective as she investigates a shocking double homicide that leads to dead ends and shocking truths about the victims.

Author David Schwinger is retired, having spent his entire career teaching mathematics at City College, City University of New York. He now lives in Florida with his wife, Sherryl, whom he met when she was his student. In addition to having written eighteen Amy Bell murder mysteries, David composes songs and plays trivia and pickleball. He and Sherryl have traveled to over 130 countries. David began his mystery-writing career in 2013, upon the urging of his wife.

“When James Mandoor, founder and president of Mandoor Specialty Insurance (MSI), married his recently hired receptionist, Elaine, who was half his age, many people were not very optimistic regarding the future of the marriage,” writes Schwinger. “But two years later, both Elaine and James seemed to be very happily married and very much in love.

“Then the Yonkers police found the bodies of Elaine, and also that of a con man / ladies’ man named Gary, on the floor of a small secluded cabin, owned by MSI. Both had been shot dead.

“The three VPs of MSI got together to retain the services of smart, sexy supersleuth Amy Bell to investigate the double murder. She soon discovered that Elaine’s past behavior was very far from squeaky-clean, and there were several people who had reasons to want her dead. The same for Gary, in spades!

“However, many of Amy’s suspects had good alibis, and others passed lie detector tests. Clearly, Amy was missing something—something big—while her chances to find some sort of new evidence were running thin. Could she somehow break through and solve the double murder?”
