From the Author's Introduction: "By the time I was finishing Frequent Flyer, the fourth book in the series, it was 1988 and I’d been living at our family ranch in Texas for three or four years.

It seemed that the further that I got away from the city, and the more serene and bucolic my environment, the more powerful New York became in my imagination. I’m particularly pleased that Vandam Press has selected this book to be reprinted as part of its new Masters of Crime series. ..."
