Saturday, March 1, 2003

Black Sheep (NAPSA)—Oil. The very word connotes power and wealth. But what if a cheaper substitute could be found? And what if control of this new substitute was in the hands of just one man? That’s the question R.J. Kaiser explores in his new thriller, Black Sheep (MIRA Books, $23.95). bob Ueto Jonas Lamb has LetsWilejived a turbulent Z ie life—six marriages and an uneven fi- oi--f- nancial road. Then AAAI genetic engineer, by ri his son, Patrick, a uula comes to him with a discovery that could change the world: an inexpensive substitute for oil (code named “Black Sheep”). He needs his father’s help in securing financial backing. For Jonas, this discovery has the potential to provide him with the wealth and power he could only dream of before. All Jonas needsare the financial resources to bring about his plan. But things are never that easy— and before you can say “Black Sheep,” word of Patrick’s discovery is leaked and Jonas has the FBI andthe CIA after him, as well as a myriad of hit men (and a very tempting hit woman,too). As the plot jets from Hong Kong to San Francisco to France and back again, the twists multiply and the stakes get higher. Can Jonas pull it off? Will he be able to make a fortune, prove himself to his son and win back his second wife (and Patrick’s mother) Tess? Or will he lose it all—including, quite possibly, his life? Kaiser’s novels, compared by Publishers Weekly to those of Elmore Leonard, are known for their authenticity. This is a result of his legal education and his experience working in U.S. Army Intelligence, and for Congress and the United Nations. Black Sheep is available wherever booksaresold.
