Abstract:
Pete McCauley, retired Army officer and sometime CIA operative, is furious when he discovers that his nemisis, Grantland Farrow, is on the verge of winning the New Right Party’s nomination for a U.S. Senate seat from California – and appears to be a shoo-in for election. He sets out to reveal Farrow for the monster he knows him to be, and discovers that Farrow is even worse than he imagined. But McCauley can’t bring Farrow down without doing irreparable harm to the life of a former film beauty, the enchanting Tiger Lily, who now devotes herself to saving discarded wild animals.
