A wild plot leads a covert operative around the globe—and into deadly trouble: "I admire Philip Atlee's writing tremendously." —Raymond Chandler Joe Gall's current assignment involves escorting a sexy folk singer on an international journey—but as always for the ex–CIA operative, there's more going on behind the scenes. Before this job is through, Gall will find himself untangling a mystery involving a toy manufacturer, an assassination plot, and a dictator's goons—and trying desperately to make it out alive . . . This classic series of action novels featuring the fearless freelancer comes from the Edgar Award–nominated author praised as "the John D. MacDonald of espionage fiction" (Larry McMurtry, The New York Times).
