"Radio audiences know Swaim as the reporter on Book Beat , with views of the literary scene.

In 1948, Howard (no one knows his last name) inherits his father's store, where "Pop's old pal, Harry" continues to visit from Baltimore, although he misses his friend, who enjoyed intellectual arguments with the scourge of the "booboisie." Along with the other store owners, Howard mostly ignores the aging but still vitriolic H. L., but Mencken becomes important when Howard's life is threatened. The cause is an 18th century manuscript that Howard's part-time helper, Lenny, persuades him to buy, declaring that they can sell…

Like her literary forebear Charles Dickens, acclaimed author Anne Perry intrigues us with intricate plots propelled by vivid characters and the dark pleasures of Victorian London. Superintendent Thomas Pitt cannot immediately ascertain exactly what segment of society the dead man riding the morning tide of the Thames came from, but the sight of him is unforgettable. He lies in a battered punt drifting through the morning mist, his arms and legs chained to the boat's sides. He is clad in a torn green gown and flowers bestrew his battered body. Is he, as Pitt fears, a French diplomat who has gone missing? Or merely someone who greatly resembles him? Pitt's determined search for answers leads him deep into London's bohemia to the theatre where beautiful Cecily Antrim is outraging society with her bold…
