No Cure for Death

What kind of drama could happen in a small-town Iowa bus station? If you’re a guy
like Mallory, it’s the kind that involves sidestepping trouble between a pretty,
frightened blonde and a pretty frightening, two-fisted, one-eyed goon. With the help
of a handy Pepsi bottle, Mallory saves the lady from the menacing lout, shares a
heartfelt moment, and sees her safely off, wistfully wondering if they’ll ever meet
again. End of story? Not a chance. Even though it’s Mallory’s best buddy, John, who’s visiting on leave from combat
in Vietnam, it’s Mallory who has a nasty flashback-when that same sweet blonde drops
back into his life after losing hers. But how did she go from a bus out of town to a
car at the bottom of a cliff? Why is her accident a dead ringer for the one that
killed a scandal-scarred senator? And is local lawman Sheriff Brennan helping to hush
things up? The questions are good ones, and Mallory wants answers-bad. But if he crosses the
wrong people, things could get ugly….
