N.Y.: Scribners 1996. 1st ed. Fine in dust jacket. A novel of murder in the Dakota Territory 1876. Author's first book in the series. Historical. "The murder of a famous general stuns the U.S. Army in this first-rate puzzler set at a remote Dakota post in 1876. When General Alfred Englund is stabbed to death in his office and an enlisted man is found murdered nearby the army sends Major Thomas Maynard to investigate. Although an irascible scout fled the fort shortly after meeting with the general on the night of the killings Englund's fellow officers are the prime suspects. All respected him but complained about his certainty-buttressed by a fabled incident wherein lightning supposedly struck his sword-that he acted for God. Despite his self-righteousness the general had had an affair with a colonel's young wife and another officer nursed an apparent grudge from the Civil War. Maynard carrying serious emotional baggage of his own must sort out alibis that resemble suggest a frontier army version of Rashomon. With the help of shrewd and observant Sergeant Barrie Maynard tracks a key witness and finds an answer that pleases no one." Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Book.

WHOM THE GOD'S LOVE: A Julian Kestrel Mystery
N.Y.: Viking 1995. First edition with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. The authors third book. 1820's England. "Julian Kestrel introduced in Cut to the Quick returns again to probe beneath the surface opulence of Regency London society. Until he was bludgeoned to death with a fireplace poker in his own study charming Alexander Falkland fairly glittered in that society. At the request of the victim's barrister father Kestrel investigates and finds that the dead man was "far more complicated than most people knew." An erudite correspondence with his father shows that Falkland was a man of depth and intellect; he had also cultivated the socially risky acquaintance of a Jewish investment advisor. Falkland had doted on his beautiful wife and both humored and neglected his adolescent brother-in-law who benefits financially from the death. Kestrel works efficiently with Bow Street Runner Peter Vance who supplies added information about an unidentified woman found murdered only a week before Falkland's death. In a tale as sparkling as champagne with a dash of arsenic Ross motivates her characters with human desires ranging from the loftiest intellectual yearnings to the basest physical appetites. Offering this level of entertainment her dandyish sleuth will never go out of fashion." -- Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Book. Viking Hardcover

Smith Martin Cruz
ROSE HAMMETT AWARD WINNER
N.Y.: Random House 1996. 1st trade edition so stated. A signed first edition of the book has been privately printed by the Franklin Library. Fine in dust jacket. A HAMMETT AWARD WINNER. Another great tale by Award Winner Smith. "Though Arkady Renko is absent from Smith's latest novel the author of Red Square 1992 etc. has created instead a new protagonist Jonathan Blair a 19th-century man in the best muscular detective tradition. Until 1872 Blair was an avid explorer of Africa's Gold Coast but now he has been exiled by his employer Bishop Hannay to the Lancashire mining town of Wigan. Blair's ostensible mission is to find John Rowland the missing curate who was engaged to Hannay's daughter but he quickly learns that he'll need all his bush survival skills just to stay alive in Wigan where no one seems to want the curate found. Much of Blair's gritty charm lies in his hatred of all things English just as he is hated in turn by the aristocratic Hannays their peer relations the Rowlands-and the miners. On the first day of his investigation Blair steps on nearly every toe in a very touchy town including those of Bill Jaxon a miner skilled at a blood sport in which naked men fight with brass-studded clogs. Blair ends up on the wrong end of a clog more than once when he intuits that Jaxon's "pit girl" a woman who sorts coal may have lured the curate to his doom. Smith molds a spirited sexy mystery and fires it with his characteristic love of atmosphere. But his real treat for readers is Blair whose spicy observations imbue even this gray landscape with prismatic color and whose verbal sparring matches with the Hannays and Rowlands are equal to Waugh in their hilarious scathing send-up of English upper-class incivility. Smith's extravagant talent runs the spectrum here from sparkling dialogue and tantalizing mystery to grim graphic depictions of mining life that sear both the conscience and the imagination". -- Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Book. Random House

ABOUT THIS BOOK: This is a highly entertaining biography that looks at how the Blairs have survived life in Downing Street with all its stresses and strains. Written with access to well-placed sources "Tony and Cherie" takes the reader on an eventful journey from their first steps into the tatty environs of the flat in Number 11 still smelling of Kenneth Clarke's cigars to Blair's triumphant third term and increasing importance as an international statesman. Along the way we discover why the Blairs admitted into their inner circle a 'lifestyle guru' whose topless photograph once appeared in the Daily Star. The author describes what happened on one memorable trip to Balmoral and tells us which Royal snubbed Cherie as well as revealing the strange part played in their lives by a series of New Age practitioners. We also gain insights into the backstabbing and rivalries at work inside the Blair court and the couple's relationships with Clinton Bush and Chirac. Showing the human face of politics "Tony and Cherie" is an astonishing account of the lives of the most powerful couple in the land. Quantity Available: 5.
