The Last Tram on Dorchester Street - A Montreal Murder Mystery (Hardcover): John Charles Gifford The Last Tram on Dorchester Street - A Montreal Murder Mystery (Hardcover)
John Charles Gifford
R568 Discovery Miles 5 680 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In the heart of Montreal in 1953, private investigator Eddie Wade witnesses the brutal late-night murder of Saul Blumenthal, a Jewish German immigrant. The police suddenly and mysteriously close the case on this unsolved murder in less than twenty-four hours. Smelling a rat, Eddie decides to investigate and find justice for the victim.

But Eddie soon lands in the center of a miasma of deception and ruthlessness where the edge between justice and revenge is blurred and the threshold leading to redemption is only a faint hope. Deep and brooding secrets lurk in Montreal's Mile End neighborhood, and as Eddie discovers more about the victim and his past, he must confront the darkness that lies within his own soul.

With the facts adding up to an unexpected conclusion, Eddie realizes that more than just his investigation is at stake. Someone's got it in for him, and Eddie had better tread carefully or he may be the next one put on ice.

Written in the tradition of the hard-boiled school of detective fiction, Eddie Wade follows in the footsteps of Sam Spade, Philip Marlowe, and Mike Hammer in The Last Tram on Dorchester Street.

In 1980, the world is teetering on the edge of darkness. The president of the Republic of Liberia, Charles Dunbar Cooper, is preparing to sign a treaty with the Soviet Union that will remove the presence of America in West Africa and signal the continued spread of Communism on the continent--an event that both American and European intelligence agents are working to prevent.

CIA officer Tom Walsh is used to traveling to Monrovia as an undercover journalist who collects sensitive information--but Walsh knows this trip will be unlike any before. Assigned to an operation with French intelligence agent Yvette Dubois to prevent the Soviet takeover of Liberia, Walsh knows they are under the gun. With just days to organize key members of the Liberian government and army and stop President Cooper from traveling to Moscow, Walsh and Dubois soon find nothing is going as planned.

One of their key players is assassinated while another is arrested and charged in a series of ritual murders. During a demonstration in the capital protesting the government crackdown on human rights, both civilians and soldiers are killed. The government foils an attempted coup and then must defend itself against another.

As the oldest republic and the most stable government on the African continent tumbles headlong into a maelstrom of nightmare and chaos, sucking in everything within its radius, two spies face the mission of their lives, leaving them to wonder if either will make it out alive.
