- Synopsis
- A PI is hired by a gangster marked for murder: &“Benny Cooperman is . . . a lot of fun to hang out with&” (Donald E. Westlake). Benny Cooperman is a very effective detective—though he does get a little squeamish when things turn violent. He is snugly tucked in his bed in quiet Grantham, a Canadian town near Niagara Falls, when three unsavory thugs drag him out and present him like a trophy to notorious crime boss Abram Wise. Someone has made two attempts on the gangster&’s life, and with no one else to turn to, he wants Cooperman to investigate. In this novel from the Arthur Ellis Award-winning author, the colorful cast includes Wise&’s two disgruntled ex-wives, an alluring supermodel, an irate foreign car dealer, and an eccentric retired librarian—as Cooperman finds himself entangled in more corruption, vengeance, and intrigue than one could ever imagine existing in a sleepy little village . . . &“The Cooperman novels are heavy on full-bodied characters, sharp dialogue, and rich humor.&” —Booklist &“Mr. Engel is a born writer, a natural stylist. This is a writer who can bring a character to life in a few lines.&” —Ruth Rendell Getting Away with Murder is the ninth book in the Benny Cooperman Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
