When a trumpeter is found dead under suspicious circumstances, the investigation uncovers a labyrinth of deceit stretching across the music world and into the lives of those desperate to keep the truth buried. George Harmon Coxe constructs the narrative with the precision and rhythm of a well-played jazz set — cool on the surface, with tension simmering beneath every scene. The story moves at a brisk, confident pace, delivering the hard-edged atmosphere and sharply drawn characters that made Coxe a staple of American crime fiction for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48893805953243,"sku":"2026100006403-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/315db7d9-1d64-4e03-bda3-94bac86bfc7f.png?v=1782040289","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006403-secondhand-the-ring-of-truth","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
