THE ART OF MURDER - A Nestor Pike Noir Mystery Satire
a novel by Don West
365 pages
2007
Welcome to the THE ART OF MURDER, a world of high-class art theft, museum high jinx, high-powered money brokers, foreign intrigue, and, of course, murder. This weighty little novel is an inventive, intelligent, hugely entertaining genre-buster—a spirited send-up with dimensions unusual in noir. It’s an imaginative blend of sphincter-clenching suspense, clever dialogue, and comic observation. A hard-boiled narrator with a soft-boiled way, Nestor Pike’s indomitably intuitive character and ever-resourceful wit drives this irresistible page-turner right to the heart from beginning to end.
