About the Book

Small time skip-tracer Henry Spain helps a blonde in distress and winds up in the cross hairs of an LAPD homicide investigation. Setting out to learn what he has blundered into, he becomes enmeshed in a web of deceit and danger. An old Hollywood scandal blossoms into robbery and murder. A sinister journalist spins a tale of a giant cargo plane loaded with contraband gold that vanished into the mists of history. Spain is pursued by the law, tricked by scheming lawyers and pinned down in the crossfire between software pirates and hijackers. He follows the tangled skein of events toward the truth, unaware that it's guarded by two killers with a bullet for anyone who finds it.
