The Lemur

by Benjamin Black (John Banville)

John Glass has been hired by his father-in-law to write his biography. The problem? Big Bill Mulholland is a former CIA agent and wealthy man, a man whose secrets are not to be revealed.

When Glass hires a researcher, Dylan Riley, to help, the fun begins. First Dylan tries to blackmail Glass, and shortly thereafter, he is murdered. Who killed him? Why? It's up to Glass to find out before he becomes the patsy.

Taut, slim, and satisfying.
