About This Book

Nobody plays fair in the ransom game. Benny Cooperman is slowly going crazy. It's winter in Grantham, Ontario, and he has nothing better to do than watch the frost creeping under his door. Nothing, that is, until stunning Muriel Falkirk, girlfriend of Johnny Rosa, the key conspirator in the kidnapping of a beautiful heiress, enters his office. It's been ten years since the sensational kidnapping, and Johnny's served his time. But now he's skipped parole, or been murdered, and Muriel wants to know where he is. A lot of other people do too, most of them interested in the unrecovered half-million-dollar ransom. Benny joins The Ransom Game, in this witty and intriguing thriller, only to discover that nobody plays by the rules.
