Murder Sees the Light

Benny Cooperman is camped out at the Petawawa fishing lodge watching over a famous televangelist who has gone into hiding while waiting for a court decision. It seems like a simple assignment-that is, until the lifeless body of missing Indian guide Aeneas DuFond is found. Suddenly Cooperman is reeled into yet another deadly mystery, and everyone at the lodge becomes a suspect.   Cooperman's a detective with flair. Kinder and gentler than your average PI-and ironically squeamish about violence-he's the creation of author Howard Engel, a master of the crime genre whose enthusiastic fans include Ruth Rendell, Donald E. Westlake, Julian Symons, and Tony Hillerman. Engel's readership spans 13 countries, including Japan, England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark, the United States, and his native Canada.
