The 120 Hour Clock

By Jack Kornfield

Book Overview

Milo Turner is a con man, and proud of his craft; he's just about the best. But the scam that changes his life is not one of his own, it has been concocted by the woman he loves. When it backfires and she is murdered Milo embarks on the most daring and intricate scheme of his career, to find her killers and avenge her death. Milo knows, although the police do not, that she has been murdered. Wild with grief, he determines to track down her killer. Milo has resources, including access to the most skilled forger in the United States, the ability to take on an entirely new persona, and a valuable contact in Jock Schultz, a Barry Fitzgerald voice at the other end of the telephone and the man without whom half the major scams of the past quarter century could not have been pulled off. Using these, a newly acquired knowledge of an obscure law, and all his ingenuity, Milo concocts his enormously clever scam to expose "Ann's" killers on the pretext of claiming her inheritance. The result is breathtaking suspense and a new high in intricate and absorbing deceptions. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Great recipes...

Another reviewer panned this book b/c she bought it simply to "know Padma better." This is a cookbook, not a biography. The recipes are delicious, low in cholesterol and low-fat.
