Item description from seller

333 Pages. Orange boards with maroon quarter-spine. Author's signature on the title pages between the author's name and the publisher. There is a stamped figure (remainder?) on bottom page edges near the spine. No other defects noted to this otherwise As New book with flawless boards and text pages. Very light wear to top edge of dust jacket that is protected with a vinyl covering and the 15.95 price is unclipped. In this chilling tale of murder, madness and revolution the author has created a thriller about the 60s generation of peace, love, and rock 'n' roll. Sandy Blair, an underground journalist in the 60s is now a respectable novelist who drives a sports car and lives with a successful businesswoman. Nevertheless he is an unhappy man. He has an agent who's threatening to terminate their relationship, a girlfriend who's warning she'll do the same, and an endless feeling that his best years have passed him by. When Sandy is suddenly called upon by his old underground newspaper to do an investigative report of the brutal murder of Jamie Lynch, manager of a legendary 60s rock group he jumps at the chance. Haunted by the memories of his past and the ghosts of his future, he travels around the country stalking Lynch's killer. He drops back into the lives and politics of his old friends and uncovers a bizarre plot to resurrect the revolution of the 60s around the power of rock 'n' roll. And unwittingly, Sandy becomes a key player in the dangerous drama scripted by the lyrics in the classic music album To Wake the Dead. Woven around the popular music of the 60s, this book brilliantly captures the spirit of a generation.
