I'm surprised and vexed that neither the AP nor the NYT obit mention what I think is Martin Cruz Smith's best suspense novel, along with Gorky Park: ROSE, set in an English coal town in 1872. It was a bestseller, and I recommend it. #RIP
Mystery novelist Martin Cruz Smith, known for such Arkady Renko thrillers as "Gorky Park," has died at age 82.

For years, officials in the Czech Republic had pushed a dam project to protect a river south of Prague, and the critically endangered species living in it. But the project stalled.
In the meantime, the beavers of Prague simply built dams themselves, saving the government some 1.2 million euros.

Czech Dam Project Was Stalled by Bureaucracy. Beavers Built Their Own.

This stunning shot by our friend Yuri Beletsky, with the comet next to an Auxiliary Telescope, is today's Astronomy Picture of the Day. Congrats, Yuri! 🔭 🧪

It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.
