Mails from NYC usually within 12 hours. ; 9.6 x 6.4 x 1.4 inches; 416 pages; nFrom Publishers Weekly In January 2002 46-year-old fashion writer Crista Worthington was found stabbed to death on the floor of her cottage in Truro Mass. Her curly-haired toddler Ava was nestled by her side. The murder traumatized Worthington's idyllic Cape Cod community and captured the attention of the national media. Here Truro resident Flook My Sister Life: The Story of My Sister's Disappearance attempts to make literary sense of the tragic downward spiral of Worthington. An attractive former Vassar girl and scion of a prominent local family she left a glamorous career in New York she also worked for WWD in Paris to have an affair with a ruggedly handsome but very married fisherman and have his child. Flook despite her lively writing cannot solve the crime. "No one can understand the arc of the victim's life until her killer is ID'ed " writes Flook herself. Flook turns to terse Michael O'Keefe the assistant district attorney responsible for the Worthington case for insight and what can only be called local macho resonance. But his noncommittal investigative shop talk can't take the place of the truth. Most disappointing the victim herself emerges as neither sympathetic nor compelling a spoiled little rich girl who seems to care little for anyone except her daughter and herself. "The more we look at her the uglier she gets " O'Keefe says of Worthington. Although Flook fleshes out various suspects including Tony Jackett the father of Worthington's child and Tim Arnold the spurned-lover-turned-friend who found Worthington's body. Flook seems to favor Arnold as the murderer but who knows This work will leave most readers with a sense of sadness and not much else. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information Inc. From Booklist Starred Review When Christa Worthington an accomplished fashion writer and single mother was found murdered in a remote Cape Cod town national media became fascinated with the life and tragic end of a woman who appeared to have everything. Flook a newer resident to the same small town follows the investigation into the still unsolved murder of a woman who drifted from a life of high fashion and old WASP money to chasing a local fisherman heartthrob the father of her child in the hopes that he would divorce his wife. Drawing on interviews with family friends and former lovers as well as investigators and murder suspects Flook brings Worthington to life detailing her vibrancy character flaws and obsessions. The Vassar graduate disappointed with her career found herself in her 40s back home in Cape Cod nursing a dying mother expecting a child and reviving a hatred for her philandering father who had taken up with a much younger woman who was addicted to heroin. Flook also offers a searing look at the seaside town peopled with the rich famous and quirky as well as the blue-collar obscure and edgy in this intimate look at the allure of secrets sex and murder.

Usually mails within 12 hours. ; 0; 221 pages; From Library Jour: Journalist Anson has written a compelling account of the life and death of a Harlem teenager. This black adolescent was different however. He was a graduate of Phillips Exeter Prep School and had been admitted to Stanford University. When he was killed by a white policeman during an alleged mugging attempt in 1985 public reaction especially among blacks blamed the police for yet another needless murder of a young black man in this case a kind of ``black hope. '' Anson uncovered a much more complex story. Perry was trapped between two worldsthe upper-class high-expectation milieu of Exeter and the ``streets'' of Harlem. He sold drugs at Exeter and tried to fit into Harlem in part with street crime. Anson tells this tragic story with great empathy. Highly recommended for most libraries. Anthony O.

‎THE LOCK & KEY LIBRARY: CLASSIC MYSTERY and DETECTIVE STORIES 10 VOLUMES‎

‎New York: The Review of Reviews Co. 1909. Complete ten volume set: "North Europe Mediterranean German Classic French Modern French French Novels Old Time English Modern English American and Real Life." Edited by Julian Hawthorne the son of Nathaniel of "The Scarlet Letter" and "House of Seven Gables" fame. Julian was something of a prodigal son convicted and spending a year in federal prison for stock fraud but also a well-known and respected crime and supernatural fiction writer as well as a journalist. He covered the Spanish-American War and the Stanford White murder case for the Hearst newspapers while working hard to support his wife and eight children. This 10-volume set which broke new ground when issued in 1909 includes many authors not considered crime writers in their day -- Balzac and Voltaire for example or Kipling and Stevenson -- while providing samples of "expected" writers such as Poe Collins and Conan Doyle. First Printing First Edition Thus. Each volume about 350 pages 5 1/4 x 7 3/4 inches quarter-bound in red faux leather over red cloth-covered boards with gold title boxes on the spine and each volume illustrated with a black & white frontispiece. None of the books is fault free: All have some foxing and staining on text edges end papers and around illustrations. All text edges are to some degree soiled some very lightly others quite heavily. Also some volumes' frontispieces have come loose from the binding though all are present with their tissue protectors. The previous owner's name and date are neatly written on the fep of each book. The covers show only minimal edge and surface wear. That all said this very scarce complete set looks quite presentable on the shelf and contains more than 3000 pages of good writing. Sold only as a set. Sorry but the set is fairly bulky and heavy and will require about $12 extra postage. Also we are unable to accept priority/express orders or orders from outside the U.S. .
