Book Description

August 8, 2008
Tom Phelan, as a New York City Detective, had been shot at; stabbed; bitten; dragged by a stolen car; and crushed by another. As a private detective things turned out to be just as bad being on a hit list for injury and then death. His assignments were to protect Jimmy Hoffa, the Rolling Stones and then things really got dangerous when he was assigned to be Security Advisor the US Delegate to the Mid-East. While in Athens he had to save the Delegate from being harmed by 3 Arabs believed to be the ones that assassinated the CIA Chief of Station in Athens, Greece. Unknown person/persons tried to blow up his car; his plane from Madrid, Spain was sabotaged at 39,000 feet. The investigators in this book are all dead except the author.
