The Light of Day was the basis for Jules Dassin’s classic film, Topkapi. When Arthur Abdel Simpson first spots Harper in the Athens airport, he recognizes him as a tourist unfamiliar with city and in need of a private driver. In other words, the perfect mark for Simpson’s brand of entrepreneurship. But Harper proves to be more the spider than the fly when he catches Simpson riffling his wallet for traveler’s checks. Soon Simpson finds himself blackmailed into driving a suspicious car across the Turkish border. Then, when he is caught again, this time by the police, he faces a choice: cooperate with the Turks and spy on his erstwhile colleagues or end up in one of Turkey’s notorious prisons. The authorities suspect an attempted coup, but Harper and his gang of international jewel thieves have planned something both less sinister and much, much more audacious.

Jim and Maud McStuffem own and operate the Peaceful Rest Funeral and Reception Service, sometimes not as efficiently as they would like. An error on the part of their staff sees them getting on the wrong side of a Mafia don, Vittorio Paruzzi. As revenge, Vittorio kidnaps their makeup girl, Fleur, stashes her at his brother Mario's place, and holds her hostage for $500,000. Fleur is no shrinking violet (or, er, iris) and soon turns Mario's household upside down. Things become even more complicated when a rival Mafia don decides he wants the $500,000 and kidnaps Fleur from her captors. He has no idea what he is in for. ***** Praise for Siblings: An intense, well-crafted story of how the people closest to us can become our worst enemies. Kirkus Reviews
