註釋Dynamite burns like a high speed cigar, a disc of fire moving in a plane through the cylinder of powder at a little under seven thousand miles an hour...

Bill Barnes, an investigative reporter, is dynamited on the streets of Phoenix. Forrest Evers knew him.

The former racing driver first came back to Arizona on assignment - the Phoenix Grand Prix. Then to find the ranch his mother willed to him before her death. The ranch he's never seen. But instead of a welcome, Evers walked into more trouble than one man could handle. Under the dazzling light of the desert sky, someone has already staked their claim on his land...

Sally Cavanagh, daughter of a multimillionaire real-estate manipulator, is the key to the men with serious Mafia ties, the shadowy figures who were the subject of Bill Barnes' last articles ... before he died in a blinding ball of flame.

An absorbing, tingling story’—NEW YORK TIMES ‘Great pace, very exciting … full of murder and mayhem. The climax is well worth waiting for’—PUBLISHING NEWS
