Description
Her smile was marvelous, but as it turned out, she knew too many men. Her name was Kate Vytautis, and her Old World grandfather, Josef Stanic, has gone missing in this eighth riveting story of the iconic New York private detective, Dan Fortune. Sick with worry, Kate hires Fortune to track the old man down - neglecting to mention he doesn't want to be found. Set in the mid 1970s when the Cold War was raging hot, Fortune confronts a gang of urban militants, a group of Eastern European freedom fighters trying to break their countries from Soviet control, a double shooting in a Yorkville alley, and the disappearance of Kate herself. From SoHo through Chelsea to windswept beaches along the Atlantic coast, Fortune's pursuit reveals a changing era in New York as he sorts through the patriots and the crooks and the liars until at last, behind it all, he finds a single shadowy killer.
