Rate this book
SHE IS BEAUTIFUL AND WANTS NOTHING TO DO WITH HER MOBSTER FATHER. BUT HIS LOVE MAY SAVE HER LIFE!

A dying mobster is worried that his estranged daughter is about to marry someone just like him. He asks Jake Scarne for help. Scarne agrees to look into the matter but warns that he will let the chips fall where they may, romance-wise. Unfortunately, his client is not the only one who dislikes the potential groom. After many innocents die, the private eye feels duty-bound to set things right.

“A LAWRENCE DE MARIA TITLE GIVES YOU MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK THAN JUST ABOUT ANYTHING IN THE BOOK MARKETPLACE TODAY.” (Florida Weekly); “A MASTER OF THRILLER DIALOGUE.” (Washington Independent Review of Books); “WHILE DE MARIA MAY HAVE BEEN AN AWARD-WINNING FINANCIAL REPORTER, HE'S AN AWFULLY GOOD FICTION WRITER AS WELL.” (Naples Daily News)

INTERNATIONAL ACCLAIM

GREAT BRITAIN
THE END OF US (Cole Sudden Thriller): “Great bunch of characters and fast paced. Enjoyable.”
HOPE (Jake Scarne Thriller): “Another brilliant read in an ever-increasing catalogue of great stories.”
SISTER (Alton Rhode Mystery): “Brilliant characters, a terrific storyline and would recommend this author without any misgivings. Kept me enthralled from beginning to the end.”

GERMANY
ALAS, PARIS (Thriller): “I have read many of De Maria’s books, and find them unfailingly entertaining. Engaging dialogue, venues with enough descriptive detail to interest experienced travelers, scenes played out with gastronomic expertise, all while partnering with attractive and attentive characters of both sexes. And finally, for me, the writing in Chapter 14 was perfection.

INDIA
THE VIRON CONSPIRACY (Jake Scarne Thriller): If you enjoy conspiracy theories, this is the book for you. Well written plot and characters, fast paced, detailed mystery.
