This is the first of the three Mr. Halston Mystery Thrillers that Rothery plans to write and publish. It takes place in the year 1969 in a small island resort community on the New Jersey coast. Cable news, the internet, computers, and cell phones were not everywhere then, so the international incident that took place was soon forgotten. The story begins with the sale of Mr. Halston's company in Atlanta after becoming a widower three years prior to the story. He knows that he needs something new in his life, and the sale makes him a very wealthy man. He decides to visit the New Jersey coastal town where he spent every summer of his life until he was 23 years old, but has not been back since. He stops on the way in Washington to visit his old Korean War pal, Danny. When that war was over Mr. Halston stayed some years in the US Air Force before starting his company, but Danny went straight to the C.I.A.. Over the ensuing years, Danny has entangled Mr. Halston in a number of questionable "favors" for the C.I.A. and it seems as though he is at it again. There is suspense, romance, and "rock solid action scenes" (Kirkus Reviews) and a "robust, fast paced, and hard to put down" story. (Midwest book review - Diane Donovan).
