Acheson mentioned in LCN feature about suspense novel

Author Jenny Milchman told The Lincoln County News that she read James Acheson’s book “The Lobster Gangs of Maine” and talked with him for background research for her novel “The Second Mother.” Acheson is a research professor of anthropology. Milchman’s suspenseful mystery, which will be released Aug. 18, is set on a fictional Maine island. “I was in touch with Acheson and it was super useful,” Milchman said. “He told me tons of stuff. It all came down to the lobstering.”
