Another planet, another problem. When a banker is shot dead on the street and the police can't find his killer, his widow calls in Sam Dane. The dead man's friends say he didn't lie, cheat or steal; Dane isn't so sure. He follows a trail that leads to interplanetary politics, kidnapping, murder, torture, and money - lots and lots of money. Enough money to tempt even an honest man. A science fiction detective thriller, this sequel to "In the Blood" delivers the same high tension thrills as the first book.
