Description
The Pyx by John Buell
Homicide detective Henderson is assigned to investigate the death of Elizabeth Lucy, a heroin-addicted call girl who fell from a penthouse terrace. As he delves into her life through flashbacks and interviews with those who knew her, he uncovers a dark and sinister underworld that goes beyond prostitution and the drug trade.
This gripping debut novel has earned praise for its masterful storytelling and its portrayal of a complex and troubled world. First published in 1959, The Pyx was later adapted into a feature film starring Karen Black and Christopher Plummer, and is now available again after being out of print for over two decades.
