Spaniel in the Lions' Den. In Chicago, Arsonist Isaac Wilson completely destroyed the Christ Temple Church of the Pentecostal Assembly of the World, later offered the explanation that he had been refused permission to take his dog to Sunday services...
...bustles through the messy, male-contrived world of finance like a housewife cleaning her husband's den-tidying trends, sorting statistics, and issuing no-nonsense judgments as wholesome and tart as mince pie.

Though there are no rating toppers among them, TV's private sleuths have as hard-cored a group of addicts as a Bangkok opium den. Their perverse charm lies, often as not, in their bland amorality; there is no nonsense about fair play...
