Suspense | Mystery Private Eye

He's known greed and ambition to drive his friends to murder. But now he's face to face with a whole new degree of wickedness. A show business prodigy has been shot dead. Though no one — except perhaps the man's father — will mourn him, his demise puts Joe in debt to a shadowy presence whose sway extends deep into Southern California industry, government, and law enforcement. And suddenly Joe begins to suspect that everyone he knows — his protégé, stunning television star Ronnie McKenzie; his new wife, Gina; and most disturbing of all, his prison vet father — is part of that clandestine coterie known as "the manipulated."
