DESCRIPTION:
Prager is a fascinating creation, believably grappling with his status as an unaffiliated and unobservant Jew, with ample room for greater growth. All rights reserved. From Publishers Weekly Set in 1981, Coleman's fast-paced sequel to Walking the Perfect Square (2002) will please fans of both hard-boiled and traditional mysteries. A retired cop with an inactive PI license, Prager is happily bored in his new incarnation as a Manhattan wine merchant, husband and new father. Prager's dogged pursuit leads to a satisfying and logical solution, while demonstrating Coleman's gift for blending a classic whodunit with a gritty, realistic procedural. Residual ambivalence about his choice to help cover up the disappearance of his wife's beloved brother leads Prager to reconsider his initial refusal to take on another quest for a missing siblingâ€"A

This is loaded with suspense, culminating in an unspeakable terror that happened long ago. The murderer is revealed at just the right time. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes Edgar Award winning novels.. Better then James Deans In order, I read: James Deans, Walking the Perfect Square, Redemption Street, James Deans again and Soul Patch (in process). Liked Redemption Street the best.. Richly Worked Detective Novel I'm really hooked on Coleman's writing. Rich characters and suspense all wrapped into one.

First time in paperback! New foreword by Shamus Award winner Peter Spiegelman. Away from his beloved Brooklyn and out of his element, Moe finds that the locals aren't as eager to dredge up the painful past or
