TWO THIRDS OF A GHOST

Basil Willing applies his selective, intuitive, deductive brilliance to the murder of a best-selling author, Amos Cottle, a man without a memory of the past and detached from his immediate if never intimate circle, his publisher, his agent, his critic, and his former wife. If Amos is a ghostly figure, there is also evidence that his work had been ghosted, and in tracing his real identity, Willing establishes the murder of a man that never was. Cleverly complex.
