When his
long-lost love and new bride Clara was
brutally murdered in an
Austrian mountain
chateau while they were on their honeymoon,
super-sleuth and
undercover operative Roland Troy quits chasing criminals and retreats to the back woods of Vermont. But when his old friend and former partner McKenzie Rockett travels from Florida to ask a favor, Troy knows he can't say no to Rockett's request for help in solving one last homicide.
Troy is partnered up with beautiful, ex-model, Angela Becker, a superb undercover cop in her own right. The two of them quickly find that they are on the trail of something far larger and darker than what Troy and Rockett had initially assumed: an on-going international conspiracy that has spanned not only the decades, but generations as well.
This riveting stand-alone sequel to Prancing Tiger (Morrow, 0-688-13049-6), takes the reader from rural Vermont to the swampland of Florida, and into the mountains along the Austrian-Italian border on a hunt for the truth about one girl's past and the history of an entire nation.
