Book Description

A Joe Barley Mystery June 1, 2003

Joe Barley, full-time English professor and part-time private detective, is given a simple case: to track Jason Tyler and find proof of his adultery. But as he's investigating, Barley stumbles across the story of a missing manuscript containing writings by a young Ernest Hemingway.

What is Tyler's connection to the Hemingway papers? And why does Tyler's wife insist that Barley stay on the case, long after he's come up with the required evidence of Tyler's infidelity?

While these questions hang over Barley, his own life is complicated by academic politics, and challenges to his monogamous relationship with his longtime partner, Carole.

Set in Toronto, The Hemingway Caper is the second book in the Joe Barley series. The first, The Kidnapping of Rosie Dawn, won the prestigious Barry Award.



Editorial Reviews

Review

"Wright maintains a firm grip on the material and demonstrates an old master's ability to juggle several narrative balls at once without letting us know, till quite late in the performance which of them will eventually land with the most resounding force.


"Eric Wright is a wonderful writer with a deft, light touch. The plot hangs together, the characters come alive. There is humour and mystery and it is a pleasure to read." -Garrett Wilson, Independently Reviewed, Summer 2004
