Synopsis:

When rare photos, a scandalous diary, and a beautiful woman all go missing at once, the stage is set for three challenging cases for Henry Swann. It begins with an offer to partner up with his slovenly, unreliable frenemy, Goldblatt. The disbarred lawyer-turned-"facilitator" would provide the leads and muscle, while Swann would do all the fancy footwork. A lost diary by a free-loving Jazz Age flapper is worth enough to someone that Swann takes a beat down on an abandoned boardwalk. Pilfered photos of Marilyn Monroe propel him deep into the past of an alcoholic shutterbug, his wife; and he's hired to search for a lonely writer's runaway girlfriend. The cases converge and collide in a finale that lifts the curtain on crucial, deadly facts of life for everyone including Swann himself.

   My review;
I just finished reading Swann's Lake of Despair and I really enjoyed it. Henry Swann is trying to work on 3 mysteries at once. I loved the storyline and Swann's character is quite interesting. I I cannot wait to read more about him. There is another book called Swann Dives In and I will be reading this next.  I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
