Book Synopsis A New Omnibus of Crime by : Tony Hillerman
Download or read book A New Omnibus of Crime written by Tony Hillerman and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2005 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Three-quarters of a century ago, Dorothy L. Sayers compiled the classic anthology The Omnibus of Crime, a definitive collection of short fiction that brought together crime and mystery works from the Apocryphal Scriptures to whodunits from the 1920s. Now, reflecting the explosive developments in the genre, Tony Hillerman and Rosemary Herbert celebrate the seventy-fifth anniversary of that book's publication with A New Omnibus of Crime. Like Sayers's volume, this new book is envisioned as a vehicle carrying stories the editors think represent the best in crime and mystery writing in our time. Selections also reflect the tastes of Contributing Editors Sue Grafton and Jeffery Deaver, both of whom have stories in this volume."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buried hoards. A missing brother. Three thrilling tales of betrayal, corruption, and stolen art... After a disastrous treasure heist in Bermuda, knitter and textile historian Phoebe McCabe bolts to London to run a rare carpet gallery and slam the door on her past once and for all. But the family skeletons won't stay in the closet, the stalkers won't leave her alone, and every black market cartel in Europe will kill to get what they think she knows. Only she doesn't know anything...yet. When a priceless ancient textile arrives at the shop the same day a body is found in the trash, Phoebe realizes running is no longer an option. She needs to get tough fast in order to stay alive and thrive on her own terms. If that means bringing her errant brother to heel and tackling ruthless cartels all while dealing with her own rogue heart, then so be it. It's survival of the gutsiest in the world of art heists and black market crime and there's no room for the limp-willed or the conflicted. With occasional help from the urbane and secretive Sir Rupert Fox and his former MI6 assistant, plus her godfather and the perpetually confounding involvement of his sexy archaeologist son, Noel, Phoebe becomes snarled in heist after heist while being chased by Interpol and black market cutthroats alike. Whose side is she on? Can love rule out over conscience? What Phoebe does to finally resolve her tangled priorities is the stuff that a best-selling series is made of. In Rogue Wave, Phoebe sets out to locate her missing brother in Bermuda and finds far more than she bargains for but not what she ultimately needs. In Warp in the Weave, Phoebe travels to Turkey to track down a priceless antique carpet shrouded in mystery but hanging by a thread. In Beautiful Survivor, a missing countess and a crumbling villa in Amalfi lead Phoebe to a hoard of Etruscan gold and an explosive family reunion a long time coming. Moving from one beautifully described location to another, author (and designer) Jane Thornley weaves colorful characters with threads of intrigue, history, and romance, to create three standalone fast-paced thrillers that will leave you craving more. Read on to books 4 and 5 in a series readers claim to be binge-worthy. If you love humor, exotic locals, and page-turning action, here is your series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ROMAN BLOOD A thrilling puzzle from the ancient world with real historical characters and based on a case in Cicero's Orations - Roman Blood is a perfect blend of mystery and history by a brilliant storyteller. On an unseasonably warm spring morning in 80BC, Gordianus the Finder is summoned to the house of Cicero, a young advocate and orator preparing his first important case. His client is Umbrian landowner, Sextus Roscius, accused of the unforgivable: the murder of his own father. Gordianus agrees to investigate the crime - in a society fire with deceit, betrayl and conspiracy, where neither citizen nor slave can be trusted to speak the truth. But even Gordianus is not prepared for the spectacularly dangerous fireworks that attend the resolution of this ugly, delicate case... HOUSE OF THE VESTALS Wonderfully entertaining mystery stories set in the world of the acclaimed ROMA SUB ROSA series. It is the Rome of the Late Republic, and Gordianus the Finder has a knack for finding trouble - and dead bodies. Known to many as the one man in the ancient world who can both keep a secret and uncover one, Gordianus lays bare some of his most intriguing adventures in this new volume in Steven Saylor's highly acclaimed mystery series. In 'Little Caesar and the Pirates', Gordianus must act as a go-between for kidnappers, but he begins to wonder who is really being held hostage; in 'The Alexandrian Cat', a mischievous girl and a tell-tale sneeze reveal an ingenious plot of murder and thievery; and in 'The House of the Vestals', blackmail goes horribly wrong and there is no one to take the blame. The result is an engrossing collection of finely wrought mystery tales with all the suspense and craft that are the trademark of Saylor's work. A GLADIATOR DIES ONLY ONCE Gordianus the Finder, famed detective of Ancient Rome, returns in a riveting of stories. Nine tales of murder and intrigue take him from the seamy streets of Rome to elegant villas on the Bay of Naples, from the spectacular backdrop of a chariot race to a domestic dispute with his Egyptian concubine Bethesda. In the title story a beautiful Nubian actress begs Gordianus to solve an impossible problem: how can she have just seen her beloved brother in the market place when she had previously watched him die a gruesome death as a gladiator? ARMS OF NEMESIS South of Rome on the Gulf of Puteoli stands the splendid villa of Marcus Crassus, Rome's wealthiest citizen. When the estate overseer is murdered, Crasus concludes that the deed was done by two missing slaves, who have probably run off to join the Spartacus Slave Revolt. Unless they are found within five days, Crassus vows to massacre his remaining ninety-nine slaves. To Gordianus the Finder falls the fateful task of resolving this riddle from Hades. In a house filled with secrets, the truth is slow to emerge and Gordianus realizes that the labyrinthine path he has chosen just may lead to his own destruction.
