“Clever and lively.” —Anthony Boucher, Los Angeles Times
“The case of the missing author is over. Gore Vidal has
emerged from behind the facade of Edgar Box.” —The New Republic
In Death Before Bedtime, dashing P.R. man Peter Sargent
is invited to the home of a venerable senator to help strategize
his imminent run for president. On the night before he’s to
announce, though, the senator is murdered in his bed. No
longer needed as a political publicist, Sargent finds himself
helping the police find the killer. He deftly navigates an
eccentric cast of characters, all of whom are suspects: the
rebellious daughter; the sycophantic aide; the grieving widow; and
the power-hungry governor with his eye on the senator’s job.
Somehow, between charming the senator’s daughter and glad-handing
Washington’s elite, Sargent still manages to methodically put the
pieces into place and sees that politics truly is a cut-throat
business.
