Dead Drop

Jack Salvo teaches philosophy one night a week at a community college, but he pays his bills by working as a Los Angeles private detective. An aerospace company hires him to investigate a small-time embezzlement. The company assigns a pretty, quick-witted security expert named Lilith Lin to work with him. It’s a piece of cake–a direct route to the embezzler and a client with deep pockets. But another embezzlement and a pair of corpses expand his investigation into a labyrinth of espionage, kidnapping and murder. Jack’s life and Lilith’s are at stake, as are stealth technology secrets that could impact national security.
