Product Description

An ex-policewoman who can’t get used to being ex, and a spy-in-hiding who would rather make love than war, clash in this character-driven suspense yarn.

A murder at O’Hare International Airport triggers a crisis for Magda Daroczi, security guard and former Chicago police officer. Suspected of involvement with the mob that killed a business courier, Magda struggles to clear herself. The key to the murder is Stefan Ross, an illegal alien whose supposedly clean record hides a dark past. As the deadly secrets carried by the murdered courier come to light, Magda and Stefan contend with mobsters, the American and Russian governments, and tangled personal loyalties.

For the governments, the goal is national security. For the gangsters, the prize is unlimited wealth and power. For Magda and Stefan, the stakes are their own lives, the lives of those they love, and their future.

About the Author

Liz Huck, a member and ex-director of the Poet’s and Writer’s Literary Forum, lives in Springfield, Illinois, and works for the Department of Human Services.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Lanyard is a surprise, July 26, 2003
By Bill Goodson (Huntsville, Alabama United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Lanyard (Paperback)
I heard about The Lanyard when I met the author by chance in Maine last summer. Al Perry and his co-author have pieced together a clever, suspense-filled story which will keep you on your toes, especially when you enter a restroom in an airport!
You'll have to keep guessing as to who did what to whom.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worthy of Mickey Spillane, October 10, 2003
By James Keith Jones (North Carolina United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Lanyard (Paperback)
The authors craft a colorful set of characters that keep you guessing until the end. Magda Daroczi, reminiscent of a female Mike Hammer or Sam Spade, investigates and romances her way through a web of international intrigue and murder. The Ross brothers bring a delightful international flavor. All in all a great tale and a fine mystery.
