About this ebook

When a rabbi needs help tracking down a thief, it’s time to call on “one of the most enjoyable private eyes in crime fiction” (The Toronto Star).
 
Saul Tepperman of Ontario’s B’nai Shalom synagogue has known Benny Cooperman since his bar mitzvah. Now that Benny’s grown into a crack private detective, he’s called to investigate by Tepperman and the rabbi—after a once-trusted lawyer runs off with the savings of more than fifty clients, totaling around two million dollars . . .
 
Filled with “wit and sardonic humor,” this lively novel is part of the acclaimed long-running series by the Arthur Ellis Award–winning author (The Toronto Star).
 
“A puzzling case . . . A City Called July is a nice piece of detective work and a well-written book.” —The New York Times
 
“Mr. Engel is a born writer, a natural stylist. This is a writer who can bring a character to life in a few lines.” —Ruth Rendell
 
“Benny Cooperman is . . . a lot of fun to hang out with.” —Donald E. Westlake
 
A City Called July is the fifth book in the Benny Cooperman Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
