About this ebook
Jim Rainey’s latest assignment was his toughest to date. A wealthy magazine publisher was paying him a cool hundred thousand dollars to rescue Charles Goldman, a journalist who’d been captured in Afghanistan while reporting on the secret war between the Russians and the Islamic rebels. Befriended by the chief of a nomad tribe that is decimated by an infamous poison gas known as Yellow Rain, Jim faced death at the hands of Afghans, the Pakistanis and an American CIA agent who’s gunning for Goldman ... and for Rainey as well!
Peter McCurtin
Peter J. McCurtin was born in Ireland on 15 October 1929, and immigrated to America when he was in his early twenties. Records also confirm that, in 1958, McCurtin co-edited the short-lived (one issue) New York Review with William Atkins. By the early 1960s, he was co-owner of a bookstore in Ogunquit, Maine, and often spent his summers there.McCurtin's first book, Mafioso (1970) was nominated for the prestigious Mystery Writers of America Edgar Award, and filmed in 1973 as The Boss, with Henry Silva. More books in the same vein quickly followed, including Cosa Nostra (1971), Omerta (1972), The Syndicate (1972) and Escape From Devil's Island (1972). 1970 also saw the publication of his first "Carmody" western, Hangtown.Peter McCurtin died in New York on 27 January 1997. His westerns in particular are distinguished by unusual plots with neatly resolved conclusions, well-drawn secondary characters, regular bursts of action and tight, smooth writing. If you haven't already checked him out, you have quite a treat in store.McCurtin also wrote under the name of Jack Slade and Gene Curry.
