About This Book

As millionaire playboy Tony Frazer reluctantly leaves the sanctuary of his restaurant to join his wife at home, he is pained at the distasteful sight of a street person, unkempt and shuffling toward him. But when Frazer tries to sidestep the man, he speaks Frazer's name softly, and he draws the life from him with two bullets drilled dead center through his chest. As Frazer lies in the street, comprehension of his murderer's identity and motivation seeps into his waning consciousness, until the killer bends to finish the job with a carefully placed bullet between Frazer's eyes.
When Lt. Frank Hastings hears of the murder, he knows one thing for certain: no street person is responsible for a murder committed with a type of gun known as 'the hit man's favorite weapon' - a silenced twenty-two caliber automatic. Soon others begin to die in the same fashion; men of immense wealth and quiet renown, all with more than one thing in common. Can Hastings pull together the threads that link them to snare the murderer?
