Review
Despite the trappings -- guns, stakeouts, an ex-con, a private eye, a porn ring, a shootout -- this isn't an ordinary suspense novel. It's a lean, effective character study about a man who risks his comfortable life to pursue something half-glimpsed within his psyche. He feels guilty about his father's suicide, he doubts his ability to raise his own son, and now he's mixed up with another father, whose son has gone into a place of great darkness. A stirring tale in which actions have consequences, and no one is left unchanged by the things that they see and do.

Mass Market. Condition: Near Fine. - A Handy Alphabetical Guide to the Repertoire, Literature and Terminology of Magic and Magicians with 392 Illustrations (illustrator). Second Printing. 195 Pages. Signed by the author on the title page with signature only. Covers show very light wear. Richard Dane shoots a prowler in his living room one night, and the dead man's father swears revenge, until the two are suddenly forced to become allies. There's no doubt it's self-defense. But the death of the intruder, a small-time punk, ignites a bizarre chain of events. It starts when thief's father, Ben Russel, a hardened ex-con, threatens to take and eye for an eye by slaying Dane's son. Then the chain twists again, shattering all expectations and throwing Dan and Russel into a violent race without rules. And toward a strange and grisly, dark and inevitable truth.
