Nick Acropolis a Private Eye in Chicago, tries to find a missing pharmacy owner for his daughter. Ist in series. SHAMUS AWARD NOMINEE . "It was another nothing case. That's the only kind private eye Nick Acropolis seemed to get lately. But this one leads to Westerfield's Pharmacy, which sits in the heart of Chicago's West Side ghetto, surrounded by ruins. Nick was a real cop years ago, a homicide detective, and there's something about the drugstore that gets the old juices flowing. There's no customers for one thing. No pharmacist either, and nobody seems to know where the boss, Eugene Westerfield, has gone. And then Becky Westerfield shows up. She's taken a sudden leave from medical school to look for her father, who didn't call on her 25th birthday. Becky knows something must be wrong. Eugene Westerfield would never forget. Becky and Nick join forces, going from one of the poorest neighborhoods in the country to one of its wealthiest suburbs. They visit housing projects, the morgue, and a decrepit nursing home, hidden away between railroad lines. Becky discovers a city she never knew existed, and Nick surveys some depressing old haunts. Together, they eventually find Eugene Westerfield. But along the way they stumble into an intricate scheme of fraud and murder. Becky discovers that her father isn't the man she'd thought he was. With a plot reminiscent of Graham Greene's The Third Man and inspired by real events, Chicago native Jack Clark has crafted a winning first mystery." -- dust jacket. Book.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Westerfield's Chain,' was first published by St. Martin's in 2002, and was a Shamus Award Finalist. KirkusReviews said: 'When someone asks exhomicide cop Nick Acropolis if he misses being on the job, he replies, 'Every fucking day,' acknowledging a painful truth. He misses the work, the camaraderie, but most of all the self-respect, that sense of himself as someone who matters, acquired over the 15 years he served as a high-profile Chicago police detectiveand snatched from him wrongfully, he insists, by men who knew better. Now Nick's a small-timer, a hand-to-mouth p.i. investigating the peccadilloes of other small-timers and hating every minute of itas he's hating the minute he serendipitously bumps into spunky young Rebecca Westerfield, who's searching for her missing father while Nick's tracking down the missing witness to a minor auto accident. On the surface, there's not much to connect the two cases, but Nick ever regards a surface as the thin veneer of a secretin this case, a lot of secrets, most of them nasty, fraudulent, or positively lethal. Before he's through sleuthing, Nick uncovers a multimillion-dollar welfare scam, solves a brutal murder or two, locates Becky's worthless dad, and lightens the lives of a couple of eminently worthwhile ladies. In addition, he gets to experience the heady pleasures of a higher profile once more as he thumbs his nose at the corps of bilious blue-clad bureaucrats who summarily sacked him.The Chicago Tribune called the book the best mystery of the month and said, 'There's a memorable moment [on] virtually every page.'.…
