Free Fall — Robert Fisher

San Francisco, 1995. A missing husband, a beautiful but distraught wife, a hated name from the past, crooked cops, assorted lowlifes, the greedy rich -- characters in a case I should have avoided but couldn't resist. Before the first day was over, and impatient for the end, I made a fatal mistake, fell into a trap, and was shot and left for dead. Then oblivion, months of recovery, learning to walk again, guilt, remorse, fear, and finally the will to live. A year goes by, a chance encounter on a European street, a jogged memory, and it all comes back -- so simple, so obvious now. All I had to do was prove it by facing the same people who had nearly finished me the first time around. Book revised 12/16/15
