THE LEMUR -Benjamin Black


 










An ex-CIA operative who has gone on to become a wealthy businessman finds out there is to be a very hostile biography written about him.

To circumnavigate this he commission's his son, John Glass in law to write the official story.

When the researcher Glass hires tries to blackmail him, he is fired and a short time later found dead.  Glass begis to worry that he may be next due his secrets.


Not a top Black story,  ( John Banville) and not even close to his Quirke crime novels, but an interesting Sunday interlude, the book is more a novella and only takes a few hours to get through, worth the effort.
