FROM THE PUBLISHER - In SOME CLOUDS, master crime writer Paco Ignacio Taibo II serves up another Belascoarán Shayne caper, set once again in the chaotic heart of Mexico City, involving two inexplicable murders and a mysterious fortune worth millions, Before his case is ended, Belascoarán Shayne must negotiate an intricate labyrinth of corruption and cover-up that bears an unsettling resemblance to Mexico City's real-life scandals. Hector Belascoardn Shayne had two exotic last names, a degree in engineering from the National University, and one eye less than most people. He was thirty-five years old, with an ex-wife, an ex-lover, one brother, one sister, a denim suit that made him look more like a social anthropologist than a detective, a 38 automatic in his office in Mexico City, a slight limp from an old bullet wound in his right leg, and a private investigator's license he'd gotten through a correspondence course. He had a marked predilection for soft drinks, lemon. scented aftershave, crab salad, the Bossa Nova, and certain Hemingway novels. His heroes were Justin Playfair, Michael Strogoff, John Reed, Buenaventura Durutti, Capablanca, and Zorro (though he knew he was never going to get very far with a cemetery-full of heroes like that). inventory #20743 ISBN: 067083825x.
