The Manhattan File — Ian Kennedy Martin

Jack Regan is sent to New York on the trail of an international plot involving millions in missing American military hardware. As usual Jack Regan's talent for extreme action means confrontation with the NYPD, the FBI, the CIA and organised crime, and also a mysterious and willing woman. This is the second of the three novels published at the time of the original series. The others are: 'Regan', and 'The Deal of the Century'. Ian Kennedy Martin is the creator of Thames Television's enormously popular TV series.
