Few seem to notice or care when 57-year-old Steadfast Haynes, a veteran CIA hired-hand, dies quietly in a Hay-Adams Hotel room. But official indifference turns to panic when it's discovered that his son has been offered $100,000 for all rights to his father's memoirs by an anonymous bidder.

"There is no one like Ross Thomas...a master of the arabesques of storytelling."
Ross Thomas is ranked as one of the very top thriller writers by his fellow authors, and his readers loudly agree. Two Edgar Awards, and other prizes, only complement the abundant praise that Thomas has received. Thomas died in 1995, and since then all but one of his twenty-five novels had gone out of print. This should never have happened to the man of whom "The New Yorker" has said "Very few...are as consistently entertaining...even fewer can match him for style and power." Minotaur is proud to remedy this situation by reissuing Thomas's novels. So start reading, and prepare to join Ross Thomas's legions of admiring fans.
