Getting Away With Murder

Benny Cooperman is a detective with flair-a witty, egg salad-loving, gentlemanly Jewish detective with a pronounced squeamishness when things get violent. In his most baffling case yet, Benny Cooperman is snug in his bed in quiet Grantham, a town near Niagara Falls, when three unsavory thugs drag him out of bed and present him like a trophy to notorious crime boss, Abram Wise. Someone has made two attempts on the gangster's life and-with no else to turn to-he wants Benny to investigate.
