About the Book

"A naked woman was sitting on my toilet. Very naked and very dead."

This opening line catapults Charlie Amber on a non-stop, frenetic journey.

Charlie works for MX. You haven' t heard of it? Great that's the way it should be, since MX is a clandestine 'information gathering' unit of the FBI. Charlie is a 'DATAMAN' for MX.

As Charlie says, "Besides being an amiable guy I've been blessed with a linkage mind. Don't get me wrong. I'm not a brain - but show me a dozen disparate ideas, events, people and I'll show you how they dovetail. It's more than memory - it's a feel, an instinct, a subtle and valuable quirk of the brain. Computers can't do it. I dunno - it just happens.

Yeah, that's me a "Dataman."

Finding a beautiful, naked redhead on his toilet at 3am is strange enough but when she's dead and Charlie can't remember ever seeing her before, life gets dangerous.

Charlie has stumbled into a vicious world of death and deceit. Leading members of the Russian Mafia in the United States are being eliminated in bizarre ways involving women who are 'death walkers.' At the same time his own beloved MX is riddled with internal strife and no on can be trusted. Finally, MX cuts Charlie loose and he finds himself out on his own, unprotected and everyone wants to eliminate him. All he's got is a locket, a dubious code word to solve and the help of two cabbies - Liza, his girlfriend (a redhead) and an ex-army commando called Wynn.

"Nothing is ever as it seems." Charlie finds the FBI cliché is a reality. JUDE CHANCE weaves an extraordinary and intricate plot that has Charlie guessing and hanging onto life by his fingernails.

TAKE A CHANCE and join Charlie for a frenetic ride.
