#3 Benny Cooperman
Murder On Location
Howard Engel The Hollywood elite have gathered at Niagara Falls, Canada in the dead of winter to make an epic thriller, 'Ice Bridge.' When our favourite Grantham City private eye, Benny Cooperman, wanders onto the set, he isn't looking for a part. He's tracing a woman missing from his nearby hometown and usual beat. Has she been hit with the lust for stardom? Or are her desires something more conventional - and a lot more dangerous?
"Howard Engel is a born writer, a natural stylist. This is a writer who can bring a character to life in a few lines," Ruth Rendell.
