Staredown (Paperback)

Paperback. John Feducci shows up at the door of Private Detective Al Gerard's cottage in Seattle wanting Al to carry a ransom payment to recover his client's daughter kidnapped by South American revolutionaries, presumably. The lawyer represents the girl's father who wants to avoid publicity for undisclosed reasons. Gerard doesn't like the set-up and doesn't trust Feducci. The job sends Al first to Miami, where he meets the girl's dysfunctional family, and then on to South America. From there, it's a turbulent, strange case challenging Al to expose deceptions, confront his own failings, and retrieve the girl. And stay alive. This item is printed on demand.
