Descriptions du produit
From Publishers Weekly
Engel's 11th Benny Cooperman mystery (The Cooperman Variations, etc.) is notable because it's the Canadian author's first novel since 2000, when a small stroke left him with a rare disorder that rendered him able to write but unable to read. His PI hero suffers from the same ailment as he wakes from a recurring dream about a train wreck to find himself in a Toronto hospital. It turns out Benny has been in a coma for eight weeks after being found in a Dumpster near the university with a near-fatal blow to the head—next to the body of a young female professor, dead of a similar head trauma. Using a small notebook in which he jots things as they occur to him—a memory book—Benny and girlfriend Anna Abraham reconstruct his most recent case. An anonymously sent basket of roses triggers the name Rose or Rosie, while the sudden disappearance of a student and a prominent faculty member suggests conspiracy. Engel is better on the mechanics of Benny's disorder, and on his laborious recovery process, than he is at creating sleuthful suspense. Benny's vividness, and that of a variety of incidental characters, carries the book. (Jan.)

From AudioFile
The eleventh in the Benny Cooperman mystery series is the first since 2000, when author Engel suffered a stroke that left him with the ability to write but not read. After being viciously attacked, Private Eye Cooperman awakens in a Toronto hospital. From his hospital bed, with the help of his girlfriend, Anna, he uses a "memory book" to jot down clues to his condition. Ron Halder's Benny is vulnerable yet strong and convincing as he uncovers the why and who of the attack. Donna White portrays both Anna and Benny's feisty nurse, characterizing them as loving but determined women. The dynamic narrators make this so-so mystery into an exciting quest.
