An agent poses as a rich playboy—and winds up with a target on his back—in this thriller by the Edgar Award–nominated author.
Oil baron Mike Donoghue is on a top-secret assignment for the US government. To protect the mission, someone needs to pose as a decoy—and that's where freelance agent Joe Gall comes in.
Now, Gall must trade places with a man known for his wealthy, high-flying lifestyle and his love of drink and beautiful women. It's a role the operative doesn't mind stepping into—the only problem is someone wants the real Donoghue dead . . .
