‎INHERITANCE: An Irish Novel of Suspense‎

‎N.Y.: William Morrow and Co. Inc. 1998. 1st U.S.edition so stated slight spine slant else near fine in lightly soiled dj. An Irish novel of suspense. Author's first book. "BBC journalist Baker's strong debut thriller set two decades in the future suggests how difficult it will be to bury the legacy of the Troubles in Northern Ireland. The best characters in Inheritance like the protagonist Jack McCallan lack almost all conviction; the worst are full of passionate intensity carefully hidden behind the Royal Ulster Constabulary's past. The sudden death apparently in a gas explosion of Jack's father a decorated former police officer in the now-reformed RUC brings his son back from London to Northern Ireland to sort out his mysterious inheritance which includes a great deal of money from his father's second career as a director of a security company. Although the IRA has been lying low the British and Irish governments have been negotiating successfully and prosperity seems on the horizon. Jack gradually suspects his father's death was part of a secret bloody price for peace. Baker currently an adviser to the BBC on Northern Ireland establishes a strong atmosphere for the Troubles' devastating place in people's memories. In a shocking scene early in the narrative the climate of betrayal is established. Eventually Jack realizes the extent and menace of police corruption and goes on the run. Meanwhile his investigation of the links between his father and wealthy businessman Henry Lomax predictably ends with bombs going off and guns blazing. If one too many standard plot devices eventually turn Inheritance into a conventional thriller Baker's taut pacing solid characterization and pervasive sense of place keep the narrative tension high."

‎Woodstock VT U.S.A.: Foul Play Press 1991. 1st ed. Fine in dust jacket. Anthropologist Penny Springs and Archaeoligist Sir Toby travel to a Roman villa situated on top of an unexcavated catacomb and murder. "Sophisticated writing and stirrings of international intrigue have marked the previous exploits of American anthropologist Penelope Spring and British archeologist Sir Toby Glendower. In their ninth adventure following Toby's Folly they take off for a Roman vacation in a borrowed villa--possibly the site of an unexcavated catacomb-- on the elegant and ancient Appia Antica. The murder of their womanizing caretaker puts them briefly in the news and embroils them in the affairs of movie star Margo Demerest who is living in the villa next door while making a film. After Margo disappears Sir Toby finds the catacomb and evidence that terrorists may have been using it. The police who at first think Margo's disappearance is a publicity stunt belatedly become concerned because of the imminence of a critical international conference on united Europe. Then the sleuths are menaced and encouraged to leave town. Arnold paints a realistic picture of modern Rome and international politics in this well-paced highly readable mixture of espionage and murder." -- Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hardcover.

"Again venturing into the wryly humorous thriller territory of Hotel Pastis Mayle has produced another caper heavily larded with local color and gastronomic adventures. And again as in his novels and his nonfiction evocations of Provence truffles play a crucial role. Here his protagonist is Bennett a Brit expatriate on his uppers. Having lost his savings in an investment scam he is intent on finding the means to reside in Saint-Martin in Provence. He advertises his services: 'Anything considered except marriage'--and is hired by Julian Poe a stupendously wealthy fellow Brit who needs help in evading the French income tax. Pretending to be Poe in the latter's Monaco apartment Bennett becomes involved in the hijacking of a case containing the secret formula for the successful cultivation of the elusive black truffle. When the Italian Mafioso who stole the formula auctions his loot aboard his yacht Poe scheming to substitute a fake sends Bennett to steal it back. He also sends Anna a savvy and sexy mercenary enforcer from New York to help protect his interests. After they recover the formula Anna persuades Bennett to up his fee to a cool million. With the furious Italians joining Poe in the hot pursuit the now romantically involved extortioners gormandize their lusty way across the south of France while outwitting their pursuers. Mayle makes froth highly palatable in this larky chronicle of sybaritic pleasures and larcenous activities."-- Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Book.

A NERO WOLFE AWARD WINNER. "Seattle Art Museum curator Chris Norgren falls prey to the lure of a newly discovered Rembrandt in this third in a spirited series after A Glancing Light . He also topples head-first out of a second-story window but the nasty fall is happily blunted by a conveniently located car. Acquiring art isn't usually perilous but anything is possible when the work is in the care of French dealer Rene Vachey notorious for passing off thefts as publicity stunts. Vachey has offered the Rembrandt--if it really is a Rembrandt--as a gift to Chris's museum with a veritable spider's web of strings attached. He will however permit only a cursory viewing and explicitly forbids scientific authentication. Chris adrift in France far from the arms of his girl feels pretty sure that the painting is the genuine article. But after Vachey is murdered his claim to have found the Rembrandt in a junk shop suddenly seems dubious; moreover his employees have excellent motives to dislike him several art experts have been burned by his outrageous exploits and he even has that old crime fiction favorite a deadbeat son recently dunned out of his dad's dough in a suspect will. Elkins wields all this with indecent ease keeping the laugh count high and imparting copious amounts of art lore along the way." -- Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Fine. Book.

So warns the anti-marriage vengeful divorced writer and theater artist Milly Xico speaking to Perdita Halley urging her not to give up her career in order to marry her lover Dr. the Baron Alexander von Reisden. The talented 21-year-old Perdita an aspiring concert pianist so nearsighted as to be almost blind is determined to find out what she can accomplish in music. But her love for the Baron may be more of an impediment than her physical handicap. Set in the Paris of 1910 Smith's ambitious second novel after The Vanished Child opens with the Baron a specialist in "mental disturbances" viewing the corpse of a murdered beggar woman to whom he was in the habit of giving alms. The Baron haunted by the fact that he killed his abusive grandfather at age eight feels empathy for the beggar woman's murderer who begins writing to him not long after the body is found. Told in the alternating viewpoints of Perdita Milly the Baron the murderer and a private detective from Massachusetts sent by Perdita's guardian to encourage the Baron to marry her this is a sprawling baroque tale of budding early feminism murder and art forgery. Saturated with a subtle eroticism low-key humor and luxuriant atmosphere particularly concerning the great flood that ravaged the city of Paris early in the century." -- Publishers Weekly. 469 pages.
