First US Edition. A gripping tale of revenge and rivalry from the author of The Oxford MurdersArgentinean author Guillermo Martinez's work appeals to fans of both literary fiction and mysteries. Now, with this new tale of psychological suspense, Martinez is poised to expand on the success of The Oxford Murders. The narrator is a…n up-and-coming young writer who has little in common with Kloster-a literary giant whose disturbing crime novels dominate the bestseller lists. However, they have both, at one time, employed the secretarial services of the alluring Luciana B. Out of the past, Luciana makes a desperate plea to the young writer. She thinks that Kloster is slowly killing off everyone close to her-can he help before her grandmother and younger sister are murdered? While the narrator suspects her misfortunes have driven her mad, Kloster has a powerful motive; and eerie parallels surface between the murders in Kloster's books and the real-life deaths surrounding Luciana. As the body count multiplies, the question arises: Can words really kill? Fans of both Alfred Hitchcock and Carlos Ruiz Zafon will be thrilled with Martinez's literary murder mystery. An exceptional copy; fine in an equally fine dw, now mylar-sleeved. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new. ; 215 pages; Description: 215 p. ; 22 cm. Subject: Murder --Argentina --Buenos Aires --Crime and mystery --Fiction. 1 Kg.

"The perfect mix of family drama and murder mystery" (Kellye Garrett, award-winning author) in this lighthearted whodunnit about a grandmother-mother-daughter trio of amateur sleuths. Think: Gilmore Girls, but with murder. High-powered businesswoman Lana Rubicon has a lot to be proud of:her keen intelligence, impeccable taste, and the L.A. real estate empire she's built. But when she finds herself trapped 300 miles north of the city, convalescing in a sleepy coastal town with her adult daughter Beth and teenage granddaughter Jack, Lana is stuck counting otters instead of square footageand hoping that boredom won't kill her before the cancer does. Then Jacktiny in stature but fiercely independenthappens upon a dead body while kayaking. She quickly becomes a suspect in the homicide investigation, and the Rubicon women are thrown into chaos. Beth thinks Lana should focus on recovery, but Lana has a better idea. She'll pull on her wig, find the true murderer, protect her family, and prove she still has power. With Jack and Beth's help, Lana uncovers a web of lies, family vendettas, and land disputes lurking beneath the surface of a community populated by folksy conservationists and wealthy ranchers. But as their amateur snooping advances into ever-more dangerous territory, the headstrong Rubicon women must learn to do the one thing they've always resisted: depend on each other. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Oblong octavo. String-tied cloth photograph album or scrapbook with blank black pages. Five pages of single-spaced typed text, each page of text facing a captioned ink drawing by Dawn Powell; along with a large manuscript label on the front board. Label a little darkened and smudged, small nicks an…d tears on the album pages, and a little toning to the text, overall very good for the materials used. A highly curious and very eccentric illustrated manuscript by Dawn Powell, from the effects of her longtime friend, and reputed lover Coburn Gilman. Though styled as a children's story, it is anything but, and displays an improvisational and mercurial nature, beginning "Now shut up said the Colonel, and let me tell one. Kiddies, he continued, how many here can tell me what is the capitol of South Carolina? Knowing that a story was under way the kiddies settled back and ordered a fresh round in a rather tough joint not half a mile from where the Colonel was speaking." The thoroughly disjointed narrative involves, in part, the efforts by the Colonel to ascertain for Good King Irving who "had been stealing ergots from the Men's Locker." The typescript concludes: "Let your betters talk, advised the Colonel tossing her [little Alice, aged 1 month] out the window with a twinkle. And that is why they call me Sammy the Stout-heart or who cocked Bob Tiller, a chidren's story," followed by a four-line manuscript postscript. Powell's drawings are imaginative and whimsical, and not a little influenced by her friendly colleague James Thurber. While this volume is of questionable literary merit, the album has considerable charm, and was likely prepared as a one-off gift for her boon companion Gilman. Early manuscript material by Powell - even as eccentric as this one - is highly uncommon on the market.
