An honest lawyer, a Czech hand model, and a box of mysterious
Christmas ornaments--each plays a part in Colin Harrison's
compelling new intrigue
George Young never thought of himself as a detective, but that's
pretty much his vocation--an attorney at a top insurance firm, it's
his job to pin down suspicious claims. But Mrs. Corbett, the rich,
eccentric wife of the firm's founder, has it in mind to put
George's skills to a peculiar assignment. With only a few months
left to live, her one desire is to know the true circumstance of
her son Roger's violent death. George's investigation leads him to
Roger's mistress, a cagey Czech hand model named Eliska, who can
cast a seductive spell simply by removing her gloves.
Did Eliska's motives for latching on to Roger get him killed? Or
did some of her shadowy and dangerous little friends take care of
the job? And why were there boxes and boxes of Christmas ornaments
in the dead man's apartment? George will have to take a few chances
of his own if he wants to get to the bottom of Roger's death for
Mrs. Corbett.
Set against a volatile and vividly drawn Manhattan, "Risk "is
prime Colin Harrison.""
