Killerfest
Lawrence De Maria
A Jake Scarne Thriller
Publisher: St. Austin's Press
One author has been already been murdered for allegedly insulting Islam. Now, the killers announce that Sebastian Quimper, the world's most popular thriller novelist, is next.
Enter private eye Jake Scarne, who is asked to protect Quimper during the Killerfest, one of the publishing industry's premier showcases. More than a thousand authors, agents, publishers and literary groupies are scheduled to attend the annual conference in New York. It will be a security nightmare, since Quimper is the honoree and featured speaker.
But there is more than Quimper's life and artistic freedom at stake. With book sales in the hundreds of millions, he is the key to a huge merger that will be announced during the Killerfest — a merger that will transform an industry reeling under the pressures of self-publishers and the Internet.
The New York Police Department and private security firms are on high alert, but Scarne is worried. He launches his own investigation into the killing of the first author and comes to a frightening conclusion. Nothing is as it seems in this twisty tale, which takes Scarne first to the nation's capital, and later to Europe as he unravels the conspiracy. Once again, he is confronted with a diabolical madman pulling deadly strings from behind a curtain.
