Wild Ride

The greatest detective cracks his last case a finds out more about his past than he bargained for. Fascinating historical detail tied into a modern detective novel - buy it if you can find it

terrific book

Much of the content is covered in other reviews and synopses. I found the book mesmerizing, informative, dream like. Many things I knew a little about were fleshed out in this book, such as the tragedy of Barcelona, the actual bicycle and it's a far better than average mystery too.
