Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Murder in Lima by Robert A. Levey is a fast-paced crime and suspense novel set in Peru's capital city during the mid-twentieth century. The story begins with the discovery of a corpse on the busy docks of Callao, the principal port serving Lima. What initially appears to be a routine homicide quickly develops into a complex investigation involving international intrigue, organized crime, political corruption, and hidden agendas operating beneath the surface of the city. The central character, Bob Johnson, is an American newspaper reporter seeking adventure and fresh material while visiting Lima. Drawn into the mystery surrounding a series of violent events, Johnson finds himself navigating a dangerous world populated by smugglers, underworld figures, corrupt officials, glamorous socialites, and enigmatic women whose motives are often unclear. As the investigation deepens, clues connect the murder to powerful criminal interests determined to protect their operations at any cost.
