One Man's Meat

With old-world charm and a military air, Mortimer Rothermere makes a most convincing conman. But even Mortimer's habitual sang-froid deserts him in the face of ruthless villainy and actual murder. Witty and a little wicked, Colin Watson's tales offer a mordantly entertaining cast of characters and laugh-out-loud wordplay.

Cu farmecul lumii vechi si un aer militar, Mortimer Rothermere este un escroc cel mai convingator. Dar chiar si sang-froidul obisnuit al lui Mortimer il paraseste in fata ticalosiei nemiloase si a crimei reale.
