ABOUT THE BOOK In a remote spot outside L.A., a giant truck suddenly plunges in flames off a mountain road at midnight. It looks like an accident, but it isn't. Someone had fastened a bomb under the truck, killing owner-driver, Paul Myers, who was insured for $100,000. Crack insurance investigator, Dave Brandstetter is called in to find out what happened and why. Why was Myers hauling in that secluded spot at that hour and for whom. No one wants to answer Dave's questions but then another trucker's death arouses suspicions and a pattern begins to emerge. Gradually Dave's investigation carries him into the mysterious realms of independent trucking and corporate deceit, where smooth PR talk hides ruthless and widespread deathdealing. Although Dave finally uncovers a murder, his most startling discovery concerns a secret network poisoning all of our lives. CRITICAL ACCLAIM "After 40 years Hammett has a worthy successor" - The Times 'The most exciting and effective writer of the classic private-eye novel working today' - Los Angeles Times "Nightwork has a high-stakes plot, swift cinematic action and characters with real stuffing in them" - Baltimore Sun
