Kuuluu näihin sarjoihinAmos Walker (28)
Amos Walker is hired by Francis X. Lawes, a private-sector mover and shaker in Detroit politics, to prove that his wife, Paula, who disappeared under sinister circumstances more than six years ago, is dead. Francis wants to remarry without having to wait for the seven-year declaration-of-death rule to kick in. Walker's investigation is complicated by two facts: the police still consider Lawes the prime suspect, and the first-responding officer in that old case was killed in the line of duty shortly afterwards and his notebook has never been found. The question for Walker is, if Lawes is guilty, why would he put himself in jeopardy of arrest and prosecution by giving the forensics team a body to work on?-- Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

Amos Walker is hired by Francis X. Lawes, a Detroit bureaucrat whose job it is to make sure city contracts are awarded fairly, to prove that his wife, Paula, is truly dead. She disappeared in a seedy part of town, six years ago, and "X" wants to marry his former secretary, without having to wait for the seven-year, declaration-of-death rule to prevail. Amos consults his cop buddy, John Alderdyce, who still thinks "X" is guilty of the murder, and possibly also, the murder of the lead officer on the investigation, whose notebook was never found. The lead officer's murder was supposedly arranged by a gangbanger, who is now a consultant to the state police. As always, Amos gets into a major heap of trouble, and is bailed out by someone completely unexpected. A few more twists than usual for Estleman in this one. ( )
