In this Ross Thomas novel, one of Size's columns exposed U.S. Senator Robert F. Ames, claiming that he accepted a $50,000 bribe to make a certain speech on the Senate floor which later resulted in a business merger favoring certain key stockholders. Ames was forced to resign from the Senate, but Frank Size doesnt think the story ends there. What connection, if any, is there between his resignation and the fact that he has left his millionaire wife and moved into the Watergate with a stunning blonde? Size wants to know, and he hires Decator Lucas to dig out the facts. Lucas works for the U.S government. His job is to root out the truth about various government programs and individuals and submit reports on his findings reports that or usually result in shake-up-s even scandals, but that sometimes are hushed up.
