When Penn Gwinn and his partner, PZ, are hired by a Philippine national to tail a woman twenty-four hours a day, they think it is a simple marital relations case. But Penn and PZ soon realize the man who has hired them is not a rejected husband, but more likely an agent of the Philippine government. From hair-raising car chases in San Francisco to the troubled political center of Manila, Penn and PZ discover a trail of drug smuggling, murder and intrigue that reaches the highest offices of the Philippine government, including the government’s suspected involvement in the assassination of Benigno Aquino in 1983. Drugs, greed, and government will Penn and PZ get out alive?
Hal Miller - author of the action-packed Penn Gwinn Series - is an author of many talents. Many of his action/adventure novels, which are spiced with international intrigue, spies, and secret governmental agendas, rely on his experiences both as a private investigator as well as with the NSA.
An experienced journalist and editor, he also incorporates his knowledge of sailing, sail boat construction, exotic locales, and governmental funny business to create page-turners that are oddly prophetic.
He lives in Marin County but has traveled extensively both internationally and in the U.S. for work and for inspiration, particularly in Latin America. He has written several plays and screenplays based on his books.
