I should have added that the third book (when the bough breaks...) is a
collection of short true crime tales according to the customer...we own the
Bernstein and the patron was sure it wasn't that one...thanks, anyway
...and thanks to everyone who knew the C.S. Lewis/ Screwtape Letters...
...and I must run the book Mafia Kingfish by the customer...he thought he
wanted a fiction book too, but the title rings true!
thanks, Martha G
