Pericles "Perry" Christo is a PI with a past--a former cop, who lost his badge and his family when a corruption scandal left him broke and disgraced. When wealthy Upper East Side matron Julia Drusilla summons him one cold February night, he grabs what seems to be a straightforward (and lucrative) case. The socialite is looking for her beautiful, aimless daughter, Angelina, who is about to become a very wealthy young woman. But as Christo digs deeper, he discovers there's much more to the lovely "Angel" than meets the eye. Her father, her best friend, her boyfriends all have agendas of their own. Angel, he soon realizes, may be in grave danger. and if Christo gets too close, he just might get caught in the crossfire. This classic noir tale twists and turns down New York's mean streets and along Hamptons' beaches and back roads during a bitterly cold and gray winter where nothing is as it seems and everyone has something to hide. In an inventive storytelling approach, each writer brings his or her distinctive voice to a chapter of Inherit the Dead, building the tension to a shocking, explosive finale"--Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C4923520</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C4923520</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2013 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4923520109</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781451684759/MC.GIF&amp;client=hennp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inherit the Dead]]></title><description><![CDATA[Pericles "Perry" Christo is a PI with a past -- a former cop who lost his badge and his family in a corruption scandal.

Acclaimed editor Maxim Jakubowski curates 24 original short stories, each inspired by the mood, tension, and style that defined Hitchcock's groundbreaking work. This anthology invites both emerging and established voices to reimagine the chilling atmospheres, twisted plots, and unforgettable characters of Hitchcock's films, from Psycho and Vertigo to North by Northwest and The Birds. Just as Hitchcock adapted stories from literary giants like Daphne du Maurier, Patricia Highsmith, and Roald Dahl, Birds, Strangers and Psychos unites today's literary stars to craft new suspenseful tales that are destined to thrill, haunt, and unsettle. These stories celebrate Hitchcock's enduring influence, creating an anthology that serves both as a tribute and as a reminder of why Hitchcock's legacy continues to loom so large in popular culture. This volume is not just a collection of stories--it's an invitation to rediscover the artistry of suspense. Each author takes on the challenge of evoking the quintessentially 'Hitchcockian' elements that have captivated audiences for decades: ordinary lives interrupted by peril, psychological duels, and unexpected encounters that spiral into nightmares"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6868100</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6868100</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6868100109</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>New Stories Inspired by Alfred Hitchcock</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781835414118/MC.GIF&amp;client=hennp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Black Is the Night]]></title><description><![CDATA[An anthology of exclusive new short stories in tribute to the master of pulp era crime writing, Cornell Woolrich.
