Про цю електронну книгу
From the New York Times bestselling author of Refugee, comes a story about a small town plagued by a mysterious stench, a murder that no one believes, and two determined friends on a quest for justice in this modern retelling of Shakespeare’s classic tragedy Hamlet.
“This well-crafted mystery has appeal.”—Kirkus Reviews
Denmark, Tennessee, stinks. The smell hits Horatio Wilkes the moment he pulls into town to visit his best friend, Hamilton Prince. And it’s not just the paper plant and the polluted Copenhagen River that’s stinking up Denmark: Hamilton’s father has been poisoned, and the killer is still at large. Why? Because nobody believes that Rex Prince was murdered. Nobody except Horatio and Hamilton. Now they need to find the killer before someone else dies, but it won’t be easy. It seems as if everyone—from Hamilton’s ex-girlfriend, Olivia; to his mother and uncle; to his mother’s old flame, Ford N. Branff—could be guilty.
Motive, means, opportunity—all the suspects have them. But who among them has committed murder most foul? If Horatio can get past the smell, he might get to the bottom of this stinking mess.

Про автора
Alan Gratz was born and raised in Knoxville, Tennessee. After a carefree but humid childhood, he attended the University of Tennessee, where he earned a College Scholars degree with a specialization in creative writing and later a Master's degree in English education. In addition to writing plays, magazine articles, and a few episodes of A&E's City Confidential, Alan has taught catapult building to middle schoolers, written more than 6,000 radio commercials, and lectured as a Czech university. Currently, Alan lives with his wife Wendi and daughter Jo in the high country of western North Carolina, where he enjoys reading, eating pizza, and, perhaps not too surprisingly, watching baseball.
