Stilly River Sage is using Ebay to get rid of his old mysteries; I may do the same.
I have all the Upfield Bonaparte books, hardbound, plus some of Upfield's rare titles- some in limited editions, including the "Murchison Murders" which only exists in that form. Any bids?

'Wanwood' was coined by the author, but there are many wonderful wanwords, including wanbelieve, wanchance, wanrest, wanny, wanrufe, wanluck, wanspeed, wanshapen, etc., etc.

An excellent series by K. C. Constantine, in which, along with the mystery, is told the story of the loss of the American blue collar middle class as steel and other heavy industries were moved offshore. He was writing about this many years before it became a topic for mind-boggled Lou Dobbs on CNN.
