The Jericho Journals

THE JERICHO JOURNALS The eccentric San Miguel painter, Edward Jericho, is known for his unannounced absences, but usually he cleans his brushes before he leaves. It would be so like him to be off in search of one of the great lost artifacts of western culture. He is, after all, an eccentric collector with some means at his disposal. Eventually the sinister tone of his present disappearance draws the eye of the Paul Zacher Agency. Paul finds the ongoing presence of Edward's shoes in his closet and his car in his garage too disturbing to ignore. People don't usually go off on an adventure barefoot in a taxi. And then there is that journal he left behind... But when Edward's money is the only other thing to disappear, and traces of an obscure Middle Eastern cult surface at the edges of the case, the Zacher Agency is soon in full pursuit, in this, the sixteenth mystery in the Murder in México series.
