Perihal e-buku ini

Ontario PI Benny Cooperman is on the case of a suspicious suicide in this "convincingly complex" mystery "with an ironic sense of humor" ( Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
Myrna Yates shows up at Benny Cooperman's office asking him to check up on her husband, the contractor Chester Yates, who she believes is having an affair. It seems like an open-and-shut case, until Cooperman finds out that the straying spouse has committed suicide. Something doesn't add up; Mr. Yates bought a 10-speed bicycle just 2 hours before he killed himself. Could this "suicide" in fact be murder? The Jewish detective's got a whole new case on his hands, one in which the suspicions of a wife turn out to be much darker than anyone could have imagined.

Cooperman's a detective with flair. Kinder and gentler than your average PI—and ironically squeamish about violence—he's the creation of author Howard Engel, a master of the crime genre whose enthusiastic fans have included Ruth Rendell, Donald E. Westlake, Julian Symons, and Tony Hillerman. Engel's readership spans 13 countries, including Japan, England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark, the United States, and his native Canada.
The Suicide Murders is the first book in the Benny Cooperman Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.

Perihal pengarang

Howard Engel (1931–2019) was born in St. Catharines, Ontario. He was a producer for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation before emerging as a prolific, award-winning, and much-loved mystery writer, best known for the Benny Cooperman detective novels. After suffering a stroke, Engel developed alexia sine agraphia in 2000, a condition that prevented him from reading without great effort. This, however, did not inhibit his ability to write, and he later penned a memoir about the experience and his recovery called The Man Who Forgot How to Read. Engel was a founder of Crime Writers of Canada, and in 2014, he was the recipient of the organization's first Grand Master Award. He passed away in 2019 at the age of eighty-eight.
