Author Logan Bahr releases Malfeasance in Eagle Cove, the newest addition to his acclaimed Detective Larry Saunders Mystery Series.
-- A New Chapter in the Acclaimed Eagle Cove Series
Mystery author Logan Bahr has officially released Malfeasance in Eagle Cove, the third title in the Detective Larry Saunders Mystery Series. Following the success of Murder in Eagle Cove and Mayhem in Eagle Cove, Bahr’s latest novel deepens the intrigue within the quiet coastal town that readers have come to know.
The series follows Detective Larry Saunders, a calm and analytical investigator known for his intellect and compassion. In this newest installment, Saunders confronts a case that tests his understanding of loyalty and truth. The story weaves suspense with emotional complexity, inviting readers to question the boundaries between justice and morality.
Inspired by Classic Detective Fiction
Logan Bahr draws inspiration from celebrated mystery writers such as Michael Connelly, Patricia Cornwell, and Dan Brown. His writing combines the procedural discipline of classic detective novels with the pacing and immediacy of contemporary thrillers.
“My goal has always been to write mysteries that are both smart and human,” said Bahr. “My characters are ordinary people who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances, working together to uncover the truth.”
His editor, bestselling novelist Jonas Saul, plays a vital role in refining the tension and movement throughout each story. Their collaboration ensures that every chapter keeps the reader engaged, with action and purpose woven into each page.
From Michigan to Panama: The Author Behind the Name
Logan Bahr is the pen name of Gregory Kitzmiller, an American writer who now resides in the Republic of Panama. Kitzmiller uses the pseudonym to distinguish his mystery fiction from his established nonfiction career.
He first gained recognition as the author of 2 Retire in Panama?, a practical and award-winning guide for expatriates. The book earned the “Distinguished Favorite” honor from the NYC Big Book Award in 2020. His updated second edition, Retired in Panama, was released last year, sharing insights and personal experiences about life abroad.
Born and raised in Michigan, Kitzmiller attended Mattawan High School and graduated from Cornerstone University in Grand Rapids with a Bachelor of Science in Management. After a successful professional career, he and his wife, Jen, retired to Panama, where they enjoy coastal living and travel throughout Latin America, Europe, and beyond.
Authentic Storytelling with Global Perspective
Kitzmiller’s life experiences have informed his approach to fiction. His time abroad introduced him to new cultures, settings, and perspectives that shape his storytelling. Living near the beach in Coronado, Panama, he writes with a focus on human behavior, social dynamics, and moral complexity.
His transition from nonfiction to fiction demonstrates a rare versatility. “In both my nonfiction and my novels, I aim to tell stories that connect people,” Bahr explained. “Whether it’s helping retirees find a home in Panama or guiding readers through a mystery, it’s all about understanding human nature.”
This balance of realism and imagination is evident throughout the Eagle Cove series, where crimes unfold through logic, patience, and collaboration rather than violence or spectacle.

Collaboration and the Art of Suspense

Their partnership ensures that Bahr’s stories maintain steady pacing and a sense of forward momentum, qualities often praised by readers who enjoy procedural fiction.
