AN INTERNATIONAL PULP THRILLER PACKED WITH BOND-STYLE ADVENTURE.
John Sand, the former MI6 agent upon whom a certain fictional spy was based, is keeping a secret from his new bride Stacey - he has been tracking the supposedly dead Jake Lonestarr, her Texas oil tycoon father's traitorous business partner.
When Stacey disappears, is Lonestarr responsible or Las Vegas godfather Anthony Morello - a man with a big grudge - or is it the shadowy figures behind the slaughter at the new international spy agency trying to recruit John Sand?
The search for the beautiful Mrs. Sand - who has her own deadly charms - crosses continents, as Sand navigates a death trap in Berlin, an attack in a neon graveyard, and an earthquake in Mexico, with an army of assassins everywhere he turns...leading to a most dangerous game in the jungles of Curacoa.
"John Sand wows in this exciting spy adventure!"
