About This Book
When English agent Gene Hawkins agreed to search for millionaire Dave Teller's prized missing stallion, he didn't know his retainer would include the attention of his boss's beautiful teenage daughter - or Teller's seldom sober wife. He also didn't know that his search would lead eventually to murder.
