Book Review: 'A Fair Corpse'
It’s 1939, and Flushing, Queens, is buzzing with preparations for The World’s Fair. But the festive energy takes a grim turn when one of the mural artists is found dead. Police Officer Brian Fitzgerald is on the case. But who among the artists, politicians, and dignitaries could be a murderer? WSHU's Book Critic Joan Baum says author Helen Harrison's latest mystery novel A Fair Corpse immerses the reader in the rich art community of the late 1930's and in a world teetering on the brink of World War II.
