The latter work introduced Houston homicide detective Stuart Haydon, a cultured, independently wealthy protagonist who would appear in four subsequent novels. By 1994 Lindsey had over two million books in print.〔 By 2004, his novels had been translated into 20 languages.〔 His 1990 novel ''Mercy'' was adapted into a movie of the same name in 2000. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David L.
