About the Book
From the heights of a crumbling Manhattan skyskraper to a real estate magnate's tropical retreat, PI, Tom Larkin, seeks the truth about rare manuscripts found in a streamer trunk from the 1920's Lost Generation.
Some believe the old manuscripts are worth more as fakes than as the genuine article, and will kill anyone who gets in the way.
From the high-end bidding of estate liquidators and antiques appraisers into the jaws of death, Larkin believes the truth is to die for, but the man-eaters he encounters run the gamut from hot-blooded vixens to cold-blooded reptiles.
Winter's shoot 'm up style prevails as Larkin stems the tide of his own demons, knowing that his acceptance of defeat against the odds is never an option.
