What do murder, embezzlement, a mythical fortune in gold, the Kennedy assassination and the Nazi invasion of Poland all have in common?

Private Investigator Adrian LeBlanc specializes in corporate crime. After he is muscled into accepting a divorce case by a stunning brunette who is comfortable not telling the truth, LeBlanc narrowly escapes drowning only to learn that he has been set up as the prime suspect in the brutal rape, torture and murder of his recent client. If this were not enough, he is conned into helping a dying woman discover what happened to her husband and his employer, Count Stanislas Petrowkski, on November 21, 1963, the day before John F. Kennedy was assassinated.

As LeBlanc pursues answers, he must unravel a series of convoluted embezzlement schemes while avoiding the homicidal intentions of people who do not want their current or past sins exposed. Against his will, LeBlanc must delve into the murky past of two Polish patriots who may have been Cold War heroes or rank con artists. Everyone LeBlanc encounters puts a self-serving spin on events that shook and finally ended the Kennedy Administration, including a septuagenarian attorney, an ex-FBI agent who worked for brutal dictators and an ancient CIA analyst who is afraid to die. With the help of a ne’er do well PI, a retired librarian, an exasperated assistant DA, and a dying, determined woman, LeBlanc devises plans that may work to ensnare the villains, prove his innocence, and bring closure to a 30 year old mystery.
