Mystery
Willis Gidney is trying to adopt a baby. Unfortunately, private eyes arenβt usually thought of as ideal parents. That means Gidney will need money for a lawyer. So he takes a job he knows he shouldnβtβbreaking into a film pirating center for a codewriting hacker named Rush Gemelli. Gidney thinks this is a onetime venture, but Gemelli blackmails Gidney into joining up with his father, Chuck Gemelli, the head of the motion picture lobby in Washington. When Chuckβs former partner is murdered, it seems like someone may be playing Gidney. Add to that the unwanted attentions of a crazed actress, a case worker from hell, and the Vietnamese and Salvadoran gangs out to kill him, and itβs all Gidney can do to keep from getting his movie ticket punchedβpermanently. A unique hero, a quirky cast, and a riveting mystery make this latest from new star Kaufman a winner.
