Wyatt Hunt-hero of John Lescroart's New York Times
bestseller --returns with a new protege,
in an intricate, tightly plotted thriller set against San
Francisco's glamorous charity circuit
Mickey
Dade hates deskwork, but that's all he's been doing at Wyatt
Hunt's private investigative service, The Hunt Club. His
itch to be active is answered when a body is discovered:
It's Dominic Como, one of San Francisco's most high-profile
activists-a charismatic man known as much for his expensive
suits as his work on a half dozen nonprofit boards. One
"person of interest" in the case is Como's business
associate, Alicia Thorpe-young, gorgeous, and the sister of
one of Mickey's friends.
As Mickey and Hunt are
pulled into the case, they soon learn that the city's golden
fundraiser was involved in some highly suspect deals. And
the lovely Alicia knows more about this-and more about
Como-than she's letting on.
Treasure Hunt is
both a nail-biting thriller and a coming-of-age story,
filled with Lescroart's trademark San Francisco flavors.
Mickey Dade, its young protagonist, gradually learns the
hard lessons Hunt knows only too well, as the world he
though he knew unravels around him.
