Interesting whodunit as multiple people confess to murdering a reformist politician. I would have confessed myself, but I was on an airplane at the time. As usual with Cohen, the book is entertaining, the company is pleasant, and the solution is reasonable, though not something you can probably figure out yourself. ( )

Dedication
To my friend ROBERT H. DAVIS
First words
The old-timer at the telephone-board made a casual entry on the report sheet spread before him, relighted his offensively fragrant pipe, and swung his swivel chair around idly.
