Late night phone calls are never good news, and hearing his secretary's scared voice on the line, Saxon figured he was in for a case with too many favors and no hard cash. But the L.A. actor-turned sleuth was only half right, because whoever took a shot at his secretary's husband was really aiming for big bucks - that is, Buck Weldon, one of America's wealthiest mystery writers, whose enemy list was longer than some of his stories. And keeping the bullets away from Buck permanently would have Saxon heading right into Southern California's dark side of drugs and violence- with a blonde in his arms, a gun in his belt, and a killer in his sights.
