The Olympic Games: 1000 Headwords ( Bookworms Factfiles) [Illustrated] (Paperback) by Steve Flinders (Author)
"Factfiles" are a sub-series of "Bookworms" with a non-fiction angle, providing factual information for students of English who are not so much interested in fiction. This Stage 3 reader takes a look at the Olympic Games.
This is the remarkable debut mystery from the winner of the 2003 St. Martin's Press/Private Eye Writers of America Prize for Best First Private Eye Novel. Investigator Wayne Weston is found dead of an apparent suicide in his home in an upscale Cleveland suburb, and his wife and six-year-old daughter are missing. Weston's father insists that private investigators Lincoln Perry and Joe Pritchard take the case to exonerate his son and find his granddaughter and daughter-in-law.
