An eighteen-year-old boy lies dying of leukemia. Kyle's only hope is a bone marrow transplant, but no one in his wealthy Virginia family can safely supply it. His last chance lies in finding his father, a man who disappeared before he was born. Police and private investigators can find nothing on a trail that has been cold for eighteen years. Kyle's family has nowhere to turn until they learn of a certain troubleshooter-that self-styled knight errant in dark glasses, Hannibal Jones. He has two weeks to find the missing man, but his search turns up so much more. He discovers a woman who might be Kyle's illegitimate sister, a woman who could be her mother, and a chauffeur who may have killed Kyle's father. Hannibal follows a twisting, winding path of deception, conspiracy and greed, from Washington to Mexico. The case only becomes more dangerous as Hannibal steps closer and closer to the truth.About the Author Austin S.
