About
Publishers Weekly calls Mark Richard Zubro's Sorry Now: A Paul Turner Mystery? "Compelling and even urgent."
While in Chicago, right-wing televangelist Bruce Mucklewrath is attacked and his daughter killed. Sensing a potential time bomb, and with Mucklewrath creating great pressure, the police brass assign the case to Detective Paul Turner whom they trust with sensitive matters. During their investigation, Turner and his partner discover that other right-wing bigots have been suffering odd attacks, and they begin to suspect a conspiracy of vengeance, perhaps even from the gay community. This is an uncomfortable thought for Turner, who is himself gay, but when Turner is attacked and his two sons threatened, he has to enlist the help of people in his close-knit neighborhood, as well as his contacts in the gay world, to find the solution in time.

Reviews
"Zubro deserves priase across the board. His characters are believable, the plotting is intricate and taut, the Chicagoland locations and personalities are very convincing. We look forward to future works by Mr. Zubro."
Gay Chicago Magazine
"Hostilities between the gay and straight communities as well as the former group's internal differences are the predominant themes in this fast-moving Chicago-based police procedural. Zubro's blend of personal and political concerns makes this story compelling and even urgent."
Publishers Weekly [On Sorry Now?]
"Zubro is certainly one of the best, perhaps comparabe only to Joseph Hansen in his appeal."
