    About this ebook

    Robert Champion, a part-time detective and full-time book editor, flies to Colorado to pick up the overdue manuscript for Kazi Dawa Sunin’s next book. Kazi Dawa is an Eastern guru and a bestselling author. On Halloween, the night of Champion arrival, the guru is found dead at the foot of the main stairway in the mansion where he lives with his wife, Katharine. In an earlier life Katharine was a movie star and Champion was her lover. No one can find the manuscript of the new book and Katharine Sunin asks Champion to find out if her husband really fell to his death accidentally or if he was murdered. So begins Robert Champion’s search for the missing manuscript and clues to what happened on the mansion’s stairway. The story concludes in an open field with Champion surrounded by thousands of people taking part in Kazi Dawa’s cremation ceremony.
