Super sports agent Alexander Drouhin, a handsome, ruthless, slick lawyer, and his motley support team inhabit a cut-throat world obsessed with money, fame, and power, so when Drouhin is found with a couple of .44 slugs in his head, there is no shortage of suspects. By the time Lt Francis Clay arrives at the crime scene, it appears that everyone has an alibi and no one has a clue.

George V Higgins, master of the literary thriller, turns his eye for detail and ear for dialogue to the seamy underside of the high powered, high dollar world of sports agenting.
