Overview
A Moses Wine Mystery “...Observant, wry, wise, funny, vulnerable and tough-minded, Moses Wine has truly come into his own.” —Patricia Holt, San Francisco Chronicle “Here is today’s Sam Spade or Lew Archer, a post-’60s analogue...Moses Wine is a private eye that bears looking into.” —The Washington Post With a new introduction by Roger L. Simon Despite a string of successful cases, despite the fact that his work has, on occasion, garnered national attention, when the opportunity suddenly presents itself for private eye Moses Wine to become head of security at the Tulip Computer Corporation, he jumps at the chance. But then one of Tulip's young geniuses is killed, and Moses quickly finds himself trailing a murderer from Northern California to Los Angeles, then across an ocean to the mean streets of Tokyo. Along the way, he discovers that there's far more to the ins and outs of life in Silicon Valley than corporate in-fighting and bureaucratic bungling—especially when it involves international computer theft, the Japanese mafia, and the GRU.
