Opis

When Boobs Montjoy nally drags Dr. Suggs away from a strip poker game in Texas, they make for Chicago as quickly as they can in a Bentley. Here, they nd attorney Bernie Swindle sick and thrashing around in bed, believing some-one has just attempted to kill him-and Suggs is the only doctor that Swindle wants to see.

It appears that he has narrowly escaped death after getting together with a young Latin woman he met at a meeting. The last words he heard from her were the lyrics to "The Girl from Ipanema." Suggs, a medical doctor with a penchant for investigation, seeks answers, and he's determined to nd this now-missing, singing contract killer.

His journey in search of the mystery woman takes him to the south of France, where he gets mixed up with an exotic dancer, a French woman and her young lover, several freelance operatives, anarchists, Arab drug smugglers, and ex-French Legionnaires."
