Ex-cop Sid Shale took early retirement from the NYPD and now relishes the peace and quiet of home—a beach-front bungalow in a small Long Island village where the latest "crime spree" is a rash of bicycle thefts. Sid now has two responsibilities: to follow his dream of being a full-time artist and, with the help of his agent/ex-wife, to sell enough of his paintings to pay his daughter's college tuition bills. Then a sixteen-year-old girl is murdered a few houses down the shore from Sid. In just a few short hours everyone, from the inexperienced village cops to the girl's mother, knows that she'd once modeled for Sid—in the nude. Whether he likes it or not, he's back in the crime-solving business, this time to save his own skin. With a superb story, an eminently likable sleuth, and the hard-to-put-down prose that has continually characterized Gordon Cotler's work, Artist's Proof is another exceptional read from an exceptional writer.

In May 1982, as the British Task Force prepared for the recapture of the Falkland Islands, a lone Sea King helicopter made an apparently forced landing in the southernmost reaches of Chile. Its crew – barely credibly – claimed to have been propelled off course by a combination of adverse weather conditions and engine trouble.The reality, never officially disclosed, was rather different. The only threat to the Task Force – and the enemy's only hope of ultimate victory – lay in Argentina's Super Extended aircraft and their sea-skimming Exocet missiles. Since radar could not be relied upon as an adequate means of detection, the British opted for a less conventional warning system. Before landing in Chile, the 'stray' Sea King dropped a team of men into Argentina, where they were tasked with remaining hidden within sight of the airfields and within easy reach of the enemy's security patrols.The only men who could be entrusted with this difficult and...
