The Brush Off : A Murray Whelan Mystery de Shane Maloney - 2001-05-09

N.Y.: Arcade Publishing, Inc., 1998. 1st North American edition, so stated, 2nd printing. A fine copy of the trade paperback. WINNER of the NED KELLY PRIZE FOR CRIME FICTION, Australia's Edgar Award. Angelo Agnelli has been Minister for the Arts for twelve hours and already artists have started killing themselves. Or so it seems when Marcus Taylor's body is fished from the Arts Centre moat. Was it really an act of protest over the state of arts funding? And what's the political damage if the suicide note becomes public? The career of Murray Whelan, minder and general dogsbody to the hapless Agnelli, hangs by its usual slender thread. If he can put the fix in here, he might have a chance of staying employed. But as Murray soon discovers, in the world of culture vultures they don't just sit around waiting for you to die before they start tearing the flesh off your bones.. 1st Ed. Pictorial Wrappers. Fine.
