Life and Crimes of Harry Lavender (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Mark Bannister, writing 'the bestseller of the century' is found dead at his computer - the victim of a murder so perfect that Claudia Valentine smells a rat... and wants it caught. The chase leads deep into the murky underworld of Sydney - a world where bright, tough Claudia must play a deadly high-tech game of cat and rat with the menacing overlord of the city's cancerous network of crime and corruption. Witty, wryly humorous and fast-paced, The Life and Crimes of Harry Lavender is a mystery with a twist, which brilliantly exposes the seamy action below the surface of the city's glittering facade. 'Earns Day a place up there in the first league of female crime writers.' - Time Out 'Sam Spade in a frock... it's almost more than flesh and blood can bear! ...Claudia Valentine is smart, sassy and sexy, even when she's up to her eyeballs in mystery and intrigue.' - Christine Hogan 'A racy, rollercoaster hunt through Sydney.' - Melbourne Times
