Overview

"The book that predicted a man-made pandemic! THE DEATH OF AN EXECUTIVE SPARKS A PROBE THAT UNCOVERS A DIABOLICAL INTERNATIONAL PLOT. A prominent Chicago law firm asks Jake Scarne to look into a murder in Hawaii. The firm's client is the dead executive's widow - a woman who left Scarne at the altar years earlier!
