Billy Boyle, Benn - B

                  This is the first in a decade-and-a-half old series featuring a Boston police detective as a lieutenant on Ike's staff in London. He is to be available to discreetly investigate matters of suspicion, and here looks into  multiple murders committed in and around the Norwegian forces and government in Britain. The interesting aspect of the book is its deft exploration of the Norwegians' wartime activities in the UK. However, there is quite a bit of the story that totally strains credulity, leading with the fact that Billy is supposedly some relation of Eisenhower's and calls him Uncle Ike. It is, though, a thoroughly pleasant diversion.
