Southern California Private Investigator, Joe Copp's new case pulls him into the corporate halls and backlots of Hollywood, behind the glamorous facade of the movie industry, where subjects of a stakeout begin dying, one by one. After an undercover narcotics officer is nearly killed, Copp is charged as an accomplice to murder, and is thrown into a real-life Hollywood scenario, in search of the gaudiest, gamiest game in which sudden death becomes the favorite plot device for the whole bloody show.Copp on Fire, Don Pendleton's rewarding and exciting second Joe Copp Thriller, is a smashing return-engagement by one of the most original and compelling new characters to come along. Pendleton delivers Joe Copp with fast-paced action and plot twists.

About the Author:
Don Pendleton (1927-1995) was creator of the popular The Executioner: Mack Bolan series and is considered the “father of the action/adventure” literary genre. His fiction includes the Joe Copp and Ashton Ford mystery series. He collaborated with his wife, Linda Pendleton on the crime novel Roulette: The Search for the Sunrise Killer, and on several nonfiction books including To Dance With Angels and Whispers From the Soul. Don Pendleton published more than one hundred novels, which have sold close to two hundred million copies world-wide in numerous languages. Milwaukee Sentinel: “Pendleton is a master of action and dialog and ‘Copp’ is a taut detective story.
From Publishers Weekly:
Pendleton's Los Angeles private eye, Joe Copp ( Copp for Hire ) narrates a fast-moving story with plenty of suspense. Confined to a wheelchair, Albert Moore pays the detective handsomely for a simple jobphotographing people entering a shop called Nu-Cal Designsbut the assignment takes on frighteningly lurid complications. A bomb destroys the shop, Moore and the chauffeur of his limousine; glossy actress Melissa Moore Franklin survives the blast, however, and runs to ask Copp for protection from invisible killers. Himself a suspect in the crime, the detective is in danger from the police and the cunning perpetrators who keep murdering anyone in their way. Learning that the man who called himself Moore has been identified as movie mogul Bernard Wiseman, Copp interviews his ex-wife Justine and gets a line on the relationship between the real Moore and Charles Franklin, former and present spouses of Melissa. The twists double and redouble, tying the private investigator into stringent knots and casting him, at length, into the hands of merciless conspirators. The author sustains the heat that keeps Copp "on fire" throughout the rousing adventure of a likable hero whose daring is matched by a lusty sense of humor.
