Manhattan investment banker Mike Fallon is having a bad time in the big city: First his Uncle Jake is beaten to death, next his lover is killed during a holdup, and finally Fallon himself gets fired and is almost pushed in front of a subway train by muggers.
Things in Martha’s Vineyard, where he flees, aren’t much better — because those events weren’t random occurences at all but rather ghosts from Fallon’s tangled past catching up with him.
Maxim makes a smooth segue from his own past as a writer of spy stories like “Bannerman’s Law” in a book that will keep you gripped and guessing.






We’ve all had that feeling: the memory of a beloved childhood book, a title mentioned in passing that you can’t get out of your head, or an out-of-print gem that seems to have vanished completely.
The search for a specific book can feel like a quest, and we want to be your trusted guide.
The Curiosity Cove is our special book-sourcing service, born from a passion for connecting readers with the exact stories they seek. If there’s a book your heart is set on but you can’t find it in our collection, don’t give up. Let us join the hunt
