A Game of Authors - by Frank Herbert (Hardcover)

About the Book

"In pursuit of a scoop, American journalist Hal Garson follows up on a mysterious, desperate letter that points to the whereabouts of legendary author Antone Luac, who vanished without a trace in Mexico years ago. The celebrated writer's disappearance is an enduring mystery, and Garson senses this story will make his career. Despite warnings, he travels to isolated Ciudad Brockman and begins asking questions ... too many questions, which place him in the crossfire of a local crime lord, a Communist insurgent group, and finally to the imprisoned writer--and his beautiful daughter--who may not want to be found."--

Book Synopsis

Murder. Mystery. Mexico.

American journalist Hal Garson finds himself in a deadly game of authors when he travels to Mexico on the hunt for a killer story.

With only a desperate letter to follow, he ignores the warnings of death and danger that he will find and travels to Ciudad Brockman, where monsters lurk behind friendly faces and swim hungrily below the lake searching for blood.

Garson unearths a lethal game infused with conspiracy, murder, and spies, and winds up in a crossfire with a dangerous crime lord. Along the way, he finds people who may not want to be found...including a mysterious and beautiful woman.

One question lies heavy on Garson's mind... Who can be trusted?

This heart-stopping thriller by Dune author Frank Herbert offers something for everyone, if you dare to travel with Garson.
