A miracle in war-torn Siena that begins with persecution of a young nun in the turbulent days of the sixteenth century and culminates in the bitter German retreat from Italy;a drug smuggling heist on an international flight where the Knock pit their wits against the smugglers;a brutal urban murder,where a brilliant QC decides to defend the killers,resulting in a startling justice;an incandescent art scam at a famous London auction house,with a brilliantly plotted revenge that shatters the elegant world of Old Masters-each story is a remarkable tour de force. And abole all here is a brilliant novella,"Whispering Wind",which begins with the single survivor of Custer`s Last Stand at Little Big Horn and ends in a savage present-day manhunt in the wild lands of Montana.
