Benny Cooperman Mysterys / A City Called July / Howard Engel

When Rabbi Meltzer and the President of Grantham’s synagogue knock on Benny’s office door, they aren’t looking to sell raffle tickets. Of that much, he’s sure. They need his help in tracking down a missing lawyer who has disappeared with the life savings of half of the Jewish community. Benny knows he’ll never see a dime out of it, but what can you do? It’s summer in the city—and it’s going to be a hot one.
