Detective Isaac Bell returns, in the remarkable new
adventure from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author.
It is 1910, the age of flying machines is still in its
infancy, and newspaper publisher Preston Whiteway is
offering $50,000 for the first daring aviator to cross
America in less than fifty days. He is even sponsoring one
of the prime candidates-an intrepid woman named Josephine
Frost-and that's where Bell, chief investigator for the Van
Dorn Detective Agency, comes in.
Frost's violent-tempered husband has just killed her lover
and tried to kill her, and he is bound to make another
attempt. Bell has tangled with Harry Frost before; he knows
that the man has made his millions leading gangs of thieves,
murderers, and thugs in every city across the country. He
also knows that Frost won't be only after his wife, but
after Whiteway as well. And if Bell takes the case . . .
Frost will be after him, too.
