Clement Jackstraw, heir to a long family tradition of military men, was drummed out of West Point, ironically, on a point of honor--he wouldn't supply the names of other cadets who cheated on exams. In the two decades since, Jackstraw has travelled the world as a high-paid mercenary. After his bride dies in a car crash, he retreats from the world of emotion and feeling. So when he's offered a small fortune to stage an assassination attempt on the beautiful Caroline Valentine, a third-party candidate for vice-president, he accepts. But when things go horribly awry, and Jackstraw becomes a fugitive hunted by every law enforcement agency in the country, he must use all his considerable skills to evade capture and turn the tables on the forces conspiring against him . . . and get closer to the enigmatic Valentine, who's developed a fondness for her would-be assassin. From the jungles of South America and the peaks of the Rocky Mountains to the backrooms and bedrooms of a presidential campaign, Jackstraw is a story of diabolical suspense, breathtaking escape--and even love.
