The Briscoe Situation Kindle Edition

The Briscoe Situation. Julius Briscoe’s odyssey begins in the autumn of 1964. He is reeling from a devastating loss and finally returns to Philadelphia after dealing with those responsible for the untimely death of his fiancé in New Jersey. Back in Philadelphia, Julius learns that his older brother has been named an equity partner in a prestigious Chicago law firm and needs a half million in cash for his buy-in. As often happens in works of fiction, Julius has more than enough cash on hand. Booty from his work as a psychic assassin. So the Briscoes take flight number 505 to Chicago for a Thanksgiving dinner that can't be beat and a long-overdue family reunion. Did I mention the skyjackers?

White-shoe lawyers, professional killers, the truth behind the Kennedy assassination, European supercars, a procession of potential girlfriends, a famous folk singer, a shoot-out in a swanky restaurant— are the highlights of Julius's visit to Chicago.

Then it's back to Philadelphia, where things get weirder and stranger. There's a deranged lion tamer, a legendary football rivalry, a foiled assassination, a miraculous healing, high-speed car chases, felony matchmaking, more confrontations with Tabula Rasa, a trio of movie stars, rock stars, terrorist kidnappers, and the world's greatest lasagna. The Briscoe Situation is a fast-paced, irreverent journey through the wild and crazy 1960s America. It's a fun read. Another imaginative page turner from Richard Ettinger.
