To Say Goodbye — Adair Arlen

Paul Gregory is the owner of Pal's, a fashionable supper club in the Southern Illinois University town of Carbondale. In his other life he works undercover for the Drug Enforcement Administration, a line of work for which he has a natural talent. Paul Gregory and Lily Greening, continuing characters from The House of Tomorrow, now married, exult in their perfect love and vow never to say goodbye. In a surprising turn of events, however, Lily leaves Paul. His new DEA posting takes Paul to various intriguing locations -- New Orleans, Louisiana and tropical Antigua and Montserrat in the West Indies -- in his hunt for his erstwhile nemesis, Stephen Meredith. During his search, his commitment to Lily is strained when he encounters fellow agent and exotic beauty, Connie Ransome. When tragedy strikes, a devastated Paul must maintain his mental balance or plunge into an abyss of despair.
