Having resolved an explosive case in a controversial manner, Andrew Giobberti has been exiled from the high-powered DA's Homicide Bureau to the dusty decay of the Appeals Bureau. But the powers that be want this brilliant, difficult prosecutor back in the courtroom.
They're counting on Giobberti's courtroom brilliance to ensure a guilty verdict for murder suspect Haskin Pool. It seems a straightforward enough case - a robbery gone bad, leaving a well-loved grocer in a pool of his own blood. The press has poured a lot of ink on the story, pressuring local police to get a killer behind bars. But Giobberti has a habit of uncovering nothing but the whole truth. It doesn't take long for him to realize this case stinks. There's a conspiracy to convict that reaches well up the political hierarchy and it's fully expected that Giobberti will play a key role in this seamy drama.

Etat : Used. Welcome to the whimsical world of "Semiautomatic," where the mundane meets the mechanical in a delightful dance of irony and intrigue. Published in the halcyon days of 2004, this tome by Robert Reuland is a vivid testament to a time when vintage meant something more than just a dusty bottle of wine or an ironic hipster haircut. Here, we explore the nuanced tapestry of life, armed with only a metaphorical semi-automatic weapon of wit and whimsy. Picture a scenario where the existential crises of the modern man are juxtaposed against the relentless tick of a clock ? and not just any clock, mind you, but one that runs on a diet of half-baked metaphors and the caffeine-fueled ramblings of a caffeine addict. Our protagonist, presumably armed with a quirk or two (possibly a penchant for collecting stamps or an uncanny ability to whistle show tunes), navigates a world that defies the laws of normalcy. Reuland, with a deft hand and a flickering light bulb above his head, manages to weave a narrative that plays ping-pong with your expectations, leaving you unsure whether to laugh or recoil in horror. In "Semiautomatic," we find ourselves enveloped in a milieu where nothing is what it seems, and the characters have more layers than a cake made by an indecisive baker. This literary concoction serves up a potpourri of dry humour, emotional meltdowns, and the occasional absurdity of life lived on the edge of a metaphorical precipice. Imagine a sitcom where the laugh track is replaced by the sound of crickets chirping ? oddly comforting yet deeply unsettling. But what do we really know about this enigmatic book? Beyond its cover, there?s a treasure trove of musings, observations, and uninvited philosophical questions that bombard your senses like an overzealous waiter at a dinner party. Reuland, an author with the audacity to question the very fabric of narrative structure, invites readers to join him on a journey through the urban jungle whilst clutching a cup of lukewarm tea. Condition: This copy of "Semiautomatic" is used, which means it comes with a delightful backstory of its own ? possibly passed around at cozy book clubs or clandestine reading sessions in local coffee shops. Expect the unmistakable scent of vintage paper (think old libraries and grandmothers? attics) and the occasional marginal doodle that may or may not resemble a cat that just survived a particularly intense existential crisis. The spine exhibits signs of wear, much like the weary soul of the reader who once clutched it close during sleepless nights, pondering the futility of existence. So, what can one expect from the pages of this literary oddity? Brace yourself for: A series of hilariously awkward encounters that make your last family gathering seem like a scene from a Shakespearean drama. Random interludes that leave you questioning the sanity of both the characters and the author. Meticulously crafted sentences that may or may not require a dictionary and a thesaurus to decipher. Philosophical musings that range from the profound to the preposterous, all while you sip your chamomile tea. A narrative rhythm that dances like a drunk uncle at a wedding ? unpredictable yet oddly captivating. In the end, "Semiautomatic" is not just a book; it?s an experience, a conversation starter, and perhaps even a mild headache wrapped in a charming cover. As you ponder whether to add this quirky read to your collection, remember that Crappy Old Books has curated this treasure for the discerning reader who appreciates the delightful absurdity of life. Dive in, if you dare, and discover the peculiar magic that awaits within these pages! THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE. N° de réf. du vendeur 199
