Product Description "Harry Brock investigates the murder of Lily Rhinelander, widowed heiress to a vast fortune, whose unacknowledged son Adrian Cooper, a black attorney from New York, quickly becomes a suspect in the case..."Jacket. From Booklist Robys latest Harry Brock novel begins at full gush. A hateful, wealthy old woman is found dead in a remote Florida swamp. Her relatives, like raptors, gather round. The one likable couldbe heir, who complicates things by being a black man, hires PI Brock to help prove him innocent of the old harridans murder. Readers expecting clashes and revelations will instead get a plot that ambles about like an amiable old hound, dropping in on a mule who wears a hat, a farmer who quotes English poets, and a cop who recites genealogy before getting to the blaze of gunfire at the end. These folks are engaging and often funny, but the reader must share the authors glee in offbeat characters to keep impatience from showing through and muttering, Isnt this supposed to be a detective story? Recommended for readers who enjoy luxuriating in a slow, meandering tale awash in idiosyncratic characters, not the least of whom is a stupefyingly beautiful hit woman withyesa deadly sense of humor.
