Then one cool October morning in 1946, he rose early, drove into town, walked into the church, and calmly shot and killed the Reverend Dexter Bell.

I thought I knew the reason, but I was wrong. The story kept my interest all the way through to an ending I did not see coming.

Gideon Crew - brilliant scientist, master thief, intrepid adventurer - is shocked when his former employer, Eli Glinn, vanishes without a trace, and Glinn's high-tech lab Effective Engineering Solutions shuts down seemingly overnight. Fresh off a diagnosis that gives him only months to live, Crew is contacted by one of his former coworkers at EES, Manuel Garza, who has a bead on one final treasure hinted at in EES's final case, the long-awaited translation of a centuries-old stone tablet of a previously undiscovered civilization: The Phaistos Disc.

Helene Wecker's dazzling debut novel tells the story of two supernatural creatures who appear mysteriously in 1899 New York. Chava is a golem, a creature made of clay, brought to life by a strange man who dabbles in dark Kabbalistic magic. When her master dies at sea on the voyage from Poland, she is unmoored and adrift as the ship arrives in New York Harbor. Ahmad is a jinni, a being of fire, born in the ancient Syrian Desert. Trapped in an old copper flask by a Bedouin wizard centuries ago, he is released accidentally by a tinsmith in a Lower Manhattan shop.

Such A Good Book of Fiction
Revisado: 06-23-19
The golem and the jinni were things I had not heard before, then found out that jinni was genie. I readily went back in mind to Aladdin, and how whenever as a child I found such a lamp I always tried for my own Genie.
I so enjoyed learning of the Golem and am still thinking of stories for my grandchildren and others children, using her as the main character.
The best part of the book for me was learning that she (the golem) did have feelings as though she were human.
The gist of the book was the story of how the golem was built and how the jinni was free to roam as a human. Many adventures are ours to enjoy as we progress through the chapters. Seeing the inate goodness of the golem, not learned through her maker!, was good to see as we live in such a harsh world today.
I can only say that if you are looking for a good fiction read and enjoy.

A new look at murder
Revisado: 04-21-18
The story kept me wanting more information. I did enjoy the different inclusions of family life. The story line seems to show that corruption is everywhere and that blackmail will last like cockroaches.
