Synopsis: In the final chapter of the Paul Rook trilogy, the part-time PI returns in “a fast paced thriller . . . not a run of the mill detective novel” (The Big Thrill). Paul Rook is a cynical philosophy professor, who delights in winding up his colleagues, and insists on punishing himself by relentlessly pursuing his uninterested ex-wife. With his personal life in tatters, and his reputation at the university not much better, he has thrown himself into Rook Investigations—his private investigation service. Armed with a quick, inquisitive mind, an arsenal of philosophic quotations and an addiction to fear, he is willing to embroil himself in any sticky situation that comes his way. Rook’s latest job is for Andy Hebden, who hires him to find his brother Marty. Marty had been selling Warhol prints and, after going to meet a client, Jacques Brissot, he disappeared along with the paintings and half a million in cash. But before Rook can find Marty, Andy turns up dead. Brissot proves almost impossible to track down, and before he knows it, Rook has become the target of one of Brissot’s men. He must find Marty before the killers find him—or this philosophical investigation just might be his last. Praise for Steve Attridge’s Paul Rook novels “A brilliantly original detective.” —Robert Foster, bestselling author of The Lunar Code on Philosophical Investigations
