Only one question needs to be asked: IS HARRY HOLIDAY LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET AWAY WITH THE PERFECT MURDER? Harry, like a lot of us, has been angry or backed against a wall enough times to think about killing someone. Like most of us, his thoughts were nothing more than emotional and intellectual exercises. Just like you and me, the fear of getting caught and his better self always won out. Until now. Now, Harry Holiday's better self lies in ruins. His world is crumbling around him. Someone tried to murder Harry's father six months ago and left Dad in a coma. Someone is trying to steal what's left of the family fortune. Some people would like to see Harry dead, and they have no scruples about killing him. Harry, a young, likable but out-of-control wheeler-dealer, is so desperate that pulling off the perfect murder seems like his only way out. Can his harebrained scheme actually work? Will he go through with it? Will it save him and the once-famous, now-rundown family business-MurderLand-a museum of gangland and murder-related memorabilia? Harry's beloved MurderLand is located in the heart of the old, tacky, casino and entertainment district in Niagara Falls. Along with the falls, the most popular natural wonder in North America, the museum was once one of the must-see sideshows for the twelve million annual visitors to this popular tourist mecca. Now, the iconic exhibition is close to folding, and Harry is at his wit's end trying to figure out how to win back the sightseers. Fighting off loan sharks and forced to sell relics buried in the museum's basement to keep the doors open and impress a quirky young woman he can't live without, Harry's hopes soar when he thinks he may have discovered the perfect dupe to help carry out a flawless murder. But Harry gets more than he bargains for in this fast-paced caper when he not only stumbles into the middle of another crime in progress but accidentally begins to uncover shocking new evidence in the basement of MurderLand that may tie together the building's past, the plot to assassinate a president, and Harry's own growing urge to kill. After a thirty year absence, Shamus and Arthur Ellis nominee Joseph Mark Glazner is back, writing about some of his favorite themes-revenge, greed, conspiracy theories, love, hate, and desperate characters willing to commit murder. Writing from inside the head of Harry Holiday, Glazner has created one of the most unusual, enjoyable, and irreverent antiheroes you're ever likely to run across in fiction or real life.
