MURDER IN GEORGETOWN
An Eleanor Roosevelt Mystery
by Elliott Roosevelt New York: St. Martin's Minor, (1999). First edition, first printing. Fine copy in a fine dust jacket. "Sargeant Peavy, the newest member of the Federal Reserve Board, led a
completely scrupulous life; if you don't count a string of extramarital
affairs stretching back as far as anyone - including his wife - can
remember. When he's found naked and dead in his Georgetown townhouse,
with and ear-ring owned by his latest mistress on the floor next to him,
the D.C. police force is convinced they have an easy arrest and
conviction before them. Which probably would have been the case if the
mistress, Jessica Dee, hadn't been a friend of Mrs Roosevelt's and an
FDR informant. As the intrepid Mrs Roosevelt investigates the
circumstances surrounding Peavy's murder, the reader is treated to all
the historical recreation and satisfying storytelling that have become
hallmarks of this series."--Fantasticfiction FREE SHIPPING TO THE USA PLEASE VIEW FOR MORE GREAT FIRST EDITION BOOKS THANKS! |
