Earl Emerson, author of The Portland Laugher and other novels featuring Seattle private eye Thomas Black, has been hailed by Aaron Elkins as 'a writer's writera master of witty dialogue; clever, complex plotting; and lucid, meaty prose in the best tradition of American crime fiction.' Now, in The Vanishing Smile, a fateful, fatal encounter on a rainswept highway throws Black into a deadly investigation.Marian Wright is an amateur sleuth in the employ of two attractive young women eager to catch up with their noaccount exlovers. Spry and seventyish, Marian has all the resourcefulness of a professional gumshoe, and the relentlessness of a woman with a score of her own to settle. When Marian's investigation ends abruptly and ferociouslywith Thomas Black and his estranged friend Kathy Birchfield as eyewitnessesThomas has a new case on his hands.Picking up the pieces of Marian Wright's search for her clients' rogue boyfriends, Thomas encounters a network of peoplefrom excons to prostitutes to other private investigatorsall webbed together by a chilling common thread. It's a discovery that speaks volumes about the zealousness of Marian's manhunt, and even suggests a monstrous reason for her sudden death.Equally monstrous is an unknown, baseballwielding assailant who seems hellbent to ensure that the investigation stays closed. But Black doesn't need a headbashing to grasp the violent, virulent implications behind Marian Wright's death. And readers don't need to look further than The Vanishing Smile for the redhot action and whiteknuckle suspense that have become Earl Emerson's trademarks.
