About this ebook
In this set of five standalone novels Jim Williams explores the central subject of the classic murder mystery, namely the murder itself, to see if there’s anything new that can be done with it.

Each novel ends with a brief set of reader’s notes.

The Argentinian Virgin – A Wartime Murder Mystery
Recherché – A Modern Tale of Memories, Murder and Vampires

About the author
Jim Williams first hit the news when his early novels had the uncanny knack of coming true. The Hitler Diaries was published nine months before the celebrated forgery came out in 1983. Farewell to Russia dealt with a nuclear disaster in the Soviet Union months before the Chernobyl disaster. Lara's Child, his sequel to Doctor Zhivago, provoked an international literary scandal and led to his being a guest speaker at the Cheltenham Festival. Scherzo, a witty and elegant mystery set in eighteenth century Venice, was nominated for the Booker Prize. All of his fiction has been published internationally. American Values is Jim's fourteenth novel.
