Pick Any Title — Russell James

James is one of the UK's finest genre writers." - Booklist. "When it comes to a great story, brilliantly written, Russell James is up there with the very best." - The Guardian. Set in the U.S. and London, Pick Any Title is the new mystery/suspense thriller from one of the finest practitioners in the dark, noir genre. `Lord Clive' bought his lordship at a `Lord of the Manor' sale where titles fetch anything from two to two hundred thousand pounds. Why not buy an other cheap and sell it high? Why stop at only one customer? Clive leaves the beautiful Jane Strachey to handle his American buyers, each of whom imagines himself a lord. But Clive was careless whom he sold to, and among his victims are a shrewd businessman, a hell-fire preacher, and a vicious New York gangster. When lawyers pounce and guns slide from their holsters, Strachey finds she needs more than good looks and a silver tongue to save her life.
