Icy Clutches: A Gideon Oliver Mystery
Aaron Elkins. Warner Books, $5.99 (0pp) ISBN 978-0-446-40040-4
Forensic sleuth Gideon Oliver discovers that an alleged avalanche victim actually died of an ice pick wound to the skull. PW called this ``well-intentioned but wordy. . . . The repetitive scientific analysis and an overwrought narrative dull the novel's potential for suspense.'' (Dec.)
