At the President's Request

Assassination of a United States Attorney

This is a story about a young United States Attorney whose murder in Michigan goes unsolved for seven years. The investigation of this murder covers many suspects, including the militias in Northern Michigan and one of their sponsors, an ill-mannered, offensive and very rich auto parts businessman. The young attorney who was murdered was the son of the United States President's best friend. As he nears the end of his last term without resolution of this suspected assassination, the President turns to another old friend, Jack Murphy, head of Boston Laboratory for Electronics (introduced in The Connection) for advice. Jack's son Colin, just home from six years as a Navy SEAL, comes up with an idea that takes him, his pal Jack Bishop and his old SEAL team on a great adventure which moves them from Washington, D.C. and Boston to Northern Michigan to California and Mexico. Surprising plot, interesting characters and lots of action are featured in this fast moving story. This is the first in a series, introducing Dash Murphy and Jack Bishop. Another entertaining read from the author of The Harvard Square Mob and The Connection.
