In Fast Lane, Ralph Arnote returns to the world of Willy Hanson, that publisher with a heart of gold who threw it all away for a life of adventure (and a woman). Willy's now a gentleman detective - an amateur Sam Spade who would love to solve a riddle like the Maltese Falcon...but winds up doing matrimonial work. And this latest case just seems like more of the same. When Amanda Granger, the pregnant wife of a philandering executive, asks Willy to get the dirt on her husband so that she can start a new life, he reluctantly takes the case. But soon Willy finds that the man had been doing more than leading a double life. With a sultry mistress by his side, Jason Granger seems poised to rocket his way to the top, not caring who he destroys along the way. But a chance encounter with an enraged motorist has started a chain of events that Granger may not be able to stop. Because his roadside opponent is a sociopath of sickening proportions. And unless Willy puts all the pieces of the puzzle together in time, people will die. Including someone very close to Willy.
