What happens when a CIA agent can't trust his own mind? The answer
is in this fast-paced, witty, and highly imaginative debut thriller—Midnight Run

Drummond
Clark was once a spy of legendary proportions. Now Alzheimer's disease
has taken its toll and he's just a confused old man who's wandered away
from home, waiting for his son to fetch him.

When Charlie
Clark takes a break from his colossal losing streak at the track to
bring Drummond back to his Brooklyn apartment, they find it blown sky
high—and then the bullets start flying in every direction. At first
Charlie thinks his Russian "creditors" are employing aggressive
collection tactics. But once Drummond effortlessly hot-wires a car as
their escape vehicle, Charlie begins to suspect there's much more to
his father than meets the eye. He soon discovers that Drummond's
unremarkable career as an appliance salesman was actually a clever
cover-up for an elaborate plan to sell would-be terrorists faulty
nuclear detonators. Drummond's intricate knowledge of the “device” is
extremely dangerous information to have rattling around in an
Alzheimer's-addled brain. The CIA wants to “contain” him—and so do some
other shady characters who send Charlie and Drummond on a wild chase
that gives "father and son quality time" a whole new meaning.

With Once a Spy,
Keith Thomson makes his debut on the thriller stage with energy, wit,
and style to spare. Once you read it, you'll eagerly await his
follow-up, Twice a Spy. ($25.99)
