The Shadow Box
Manhattan investment banker Mike Fallon is having a bad time  in the big city: First his Uncle Jake is beaten to death, next his  lover is killed during a holdup, and finally Fallon himself gets fired  and is almost pushed in front of a subway train by muggers. Things in  Martha's Vineyard, where he flees, aren't much better -- because those  events weren't random occurences at all but rather ghosts from  Fallon's tangled past catching up with him. Maxim makes a smooth segue  from his own past as a writer of spy stories like "Bannerman's Law" in  a book that will keep you gripped and guessing.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
