A small-time arms dealer joins the big leagues of money and danger. He lands a major customer, the kind that governments and secret agencies watch. They'll meet soon in an isolated French village to carry out their vile transaction.
Everyone's ready, including the buyers, several hired thugs, the womanizing dealer, two assassins and a thief. It's going to get ugly. Peter Straub takes us on a wild ride with plenty of action, suspense and some hair-raising surprises.
