Paul H. Raymer is the author of Death at the Edge of the Diamond (a novel), Recalculating Truth (a novel), and the Residential Ventilation Handbook. He has lived in the same old converted inn on Cape Cod since 1975. He carries a degree in Creative Writing from Syracuse University, and the unofficial advanced degree of Subject Matter Expert in building science. Houses speak to him and tell him of their lives and loves. His wife, kids, and grandchildren tell him other tales.
