Amanda Jaffe, the heroine of Wild Justice and Proof Positive,
is back—in this twisting tale of international intrigue and murder that
leads her deep into the past . . . and into the crosshairs of a killer.
Charlie
Marsh, a petty thief and con man, becomes a national hero when he
rescues the warden of a state penitentiary during a prison riot, but it
doesn't take long before he is wanted again, suspected of killing a
United States congressman. After twelve years of living in the African
nation of Batanga, at the mercy of Jean-Claude Baptiste, a sadistic,
power-mad dictator, Charlie flees for home to face his murder charge,
when Baptiste learns about Charlie's affair with the tyrant's favorite
wife.
But it's not just the state of Oregon that's got it in for
the philandering con. Criminal lawyer Amanda Jaffe has her work cut out
for her.
