A novel by

 
 
This time around Shell Scott gives up chasing downtown lowlifes for the uptown high-end kind. A mysterious and industrious industrialist trusts Scott with finding a stock swapper that seems to know too much. And too much is just the beginning. From big-time boardrooms to bawdy motel rooms our man Scott isn't about to sell these crooks short. Tempers flare and plots boil over but in this contest between Shell Scott and some bad guy big wigs, busty femme fatales and flying bullets, between life and death, the end could come right down to a Dead Heat.
