Summary

A brilliant young novelist wins a literary award and disappears. Detective Chess Hanrahan turns up more than murder in this sharp-edged, provocative tale by the author of the popular Sparrowhawk novels. With a new preface by the author.

Critic reviews

"Exceptionally strong . . . firm characterizations. A striking tale." (Allen J. Hubin, The Armchair Detective)
