The federal law-enforcement blog Tickle the Wire is reporting that Paul Lindsay, the former Detroit-based FBI agent who went on to write novels under both his own name and the pseudonym Noah Boyd (The Bricklayer, Agent X), “died peacefully Thursday night at a Boston hospital of pneumonia with his family by his side.
