Ah, Treachery! - Paperback
by Ross Thomas (Author), Joe Gores (Introduction by)
Ah, Treachery!, the last novel Thomas wrote before his death, tells the story of one Captain Edd Twodees Partain, drummed out of the Army and hounded by rumors of his involvement in a secret operation in El Salvador. Twodees gets hired on to help a fundraiser for the Little Rock folks recover funds that were stolen from an illicit stash used to smooth over problems and pay off hush money. Meanwhile, Partain is involved in a storefront operation called VOMIT (Victims of Military Intelligence Treachery) trying to defend former intelligence operatives such as Partain from those who are trying to cover up the past permanently.
Ross Thomas is ranked as one of the very top thriller writers by his fellow authors, and his readers loudly agree. Two Edgar Awards, and other prizes, only complement the abundant praise that Thomas has received.
Thomas died in 1995, and since then all but one of his twenty-five novels have gone out of print. This should never have happened to the man of whom The New Yorker has said Very few...are as consistently entertaining...even fewer can match him for style and power. Minotaur is proud to remedy this situation by reissuing Thomas's novels. So start reading, and prepare to join Ross Thomas's legions of admiring fans.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
