Mystery
A deliciously quirky crime novel from David McCallum, the
beloved actor know for his portrayal of Illya Kuryakin on
The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and Dr. Donald "Ducky"
Mallard on NCIS. Crime pays. And pays
well. Sal, Max and Enzo Bruschetti have proved this
over a lifetime of nefarious activity that they have kept
hidden from law enforcement. Nowhere in any file, on any
computer is there a record of anything illegal from which
they have profited. But Max has a problem. His body is
getting old and his doctor has told him to take it easy. Max
has decided that the time has come for the family to
retire. But when young actor Harry Murphy overhears
the Bruschetti brothers planning changes to their
organization, including the murder of a man in London who
knows t0o much, the Bruschetti's plans begin to unravel.
After Harry makes the well-intentioned if egregious
mistake of trying to warn the Bruchetti's intended victim he
finds himself alone in a foreign country, on the wrong side
of the law, with a suitcase full of cash and a dangerous man
on his trail. And while his good looks, charm and cheerful
persistence may prove assets in the turbulent events that
follow, none of Harry's past roles have prepared him for
what happens next. A turns tense and funny, Once a
Crooked Man is infused with the infectious charm that
has made David McCallum one of television's longest running,
most-beloved stars.
