"My guiltiest pleasure is Harry Stephen Keeler. He may been the greatest bad writer America has ever produced. Or perhaps the worst great writer. I do not know. There are few faults you can accuse him of that he is not guilty of. But I love him." – Neil Gaiman<P> It wasn’t fair! Just because Joe «Zicky» Czeszczicki had the misfortune to hire as his lawyer, 'Golden-Tongue' Winfrock, who died right before the trial, Joe was slated to die in 48 hours! There's no way a man accused of murdering a State's Attorney could beat those kinds of odds. But Joe didn't know about Crystal Armswayne of London and how she would figure into his life – and he knew even less about Tuddleton T. Trotter, ingenious author of Mathematics versus Crime. All of these threads – and more – come together in a masterwork of webworkian logic! [Note: This is the longer, British version of the book.]
