...everything had apparently gone smoothly. According to the affidavit filed by Benedek, he had invested heavily in three separate partnership deals arranged by Straw. One was to purchase a collection of antique furniture. The second was to buy eleven paintings that included a Mary Cassatt and a Winslow Homer. The third involved a spectacular $15 million group of 31 old masters and French impressionists, including a Rembrandt, a Titian, two Renoirs and three rare Seurats. Benedek said he put up $1.5 million for a half share in the first two deals and more than $1.8 million for a smaller share...

Copper Gold by Pauline Glen Winslow (St. Martin's; $8.95). A former Fleet Street court reporter who now lives in Greenwich Village, Winslow, fortyish, focuses on swingin' London's demimonde with Hogarthian relish. Her world of pushers, prossies, punks and rotting Establishment pillars is counterpointed by the decent, diligent coppers who come a cropper.
