A propos de cet article

OLD FRIENDS ARE YOUR BEST FRIENDS. OLD FRIENDS ARE YOUR ONLY FRIENDS.Paul, an ex-actor and part-time dog walker, owes his best friend Bob Shapiro a favor. In fact, he owes Bob Shapiro his life. So when Bob, a private art dealer, asks Paul to help him track down a priceless statue for a dangerous billionaire, Paul is only too happy to oblige. But when people connected to the sculpture start dying, Paul must figure out who is behind the murders before he becomes the next victim. If only Paul wasn't so inept at detecting, so inept at heisting, so inept at eating. (Just trust the fork to get to your mouth, Paul ) But, at least, Paul is a loyal friend. And Bob is worthy of such loyalty. Right? Right? Right?Witty, suspenseful, and packed with unforgettable characters, Bob Shapiro, Helluva Guy is not only a hilarious crime story; it's also an exploration of friendship and faith.Praise for Josh Harper: Harper's debut delivers a compelling mix of mystery and dark comedy. Harper's writing is crisp, witty, and conversational. The crime is layered and engaging, but not overly complex, and despite the wit the suspense is consistent as Harper deftly blends mystery, satire, and Brooklyn character study, all with impeccable scenecraft. Harper stages surprises, revelations, gags, and bursts of self-discovery with equal aplomb. Even readers steeped in the genre will find the ending a dazzling surprise with real emotional resonance. BookLife (Editor's Pick)A wryly told mystery . . . Harper does a deft job of producing red herrings that will misdirect even the savviest of armchair sleuths . . . A diverting whodunit with an unconventional sleuth Kirkus ReviewsIf you like mysteries, if you like characters that are humorously self-deprecating, if you ever wondered about life in a condo microcosm, then this is the book for you. It's a who-done-it, missing-spouse, on-the-lamb, murder-in-the-building kind of read. I highly recommend it. ReedsyFarce and introspection combine seamlessly in Josh Harper's fanciful send-up of the classic detective murder-mystery. More than a comic caper, it is also a study in self-delusion and loss. IndieReader 4.9 out of 5 starsFor readers looking for a blend of wit, satire, and mystery, Additional Attendee is a refreshing addition to the genre. - A Look Inside.…
