A Small Treasure

It has been a long time since I read a mystery novel. But, yesterday while walking Askarbek to school I found a Lawrence Sander's novel for sale on the street for 50 som (a little over a dollar). I can not say it was the best piece of fiction I have ever read, but I did devour it in one day. The amount of English language literature available in this country is quite limited. Popular novels in particular are hard to come by.
