El Jun 11 2010, Feeney dijo:
The best, certainly the most evocative, thing about Rick Boyer's Doc Adams thriller, THE WHALE'S FOOTPRINTS, may be its title. When any whale sounds, the swirl left in the water, its "footprint," is unique. Whales' footprints are invoked from time to time in a thriller that sees one of Doc's two sons suspected of murdering a friend. Doc wants to know what good a clue like a whale's footprint is, that disappears. "Everything disappears, Dad, given time" (Ch. 15). And again, Doc shows his State police brother-in-law Joe "... the inverted cone of swirling brine and foam: ... The whale's footprint ... the whale's calling card he leaves when it sounds." Joe's reaction: "Some footprint, Doc, ... Now you see it, now you don't. That's what this Cunningham case reminds me of. ... Leads keep appearing and then disappearing" (Ch. 20) ***** So if you grow bored with unraveling the mystery, there is always plenty about whales, as Doc's son is spending the summer studying them off Cape Cod. -OOO-

We are biblioboybiblioboy dealers in Books, Stamps, Ephemera, Victorian Trade cards, Magazines, Postcards, Sheet Music, Engravings, and much more. I started out as a book collector and soon progressed to owning a book store with over 80,000 books and more than 10,000 pieces of ephemera, postcards, and other items. I exhibited my stock for years at book and paper shows around the eastern United States. As the book and paper business has changed over the years, I have changed the way I do business to evolve with the times. I now offer my items for sale on the web only, through my various listing services and web sites. Being a a collector, as well as a dealer, I understand the importance of condition, as well as rarity of an item, and the desire to own scarce and one of a kind items.
