Louis Russo, former mob hit man and government informer, arrives at Union Station in DC on the last lap of what will turn out to be his one way trip from Tel Aviv. Two men meet his train, one is the man who will kill him, the other is Richard Marienthal, a young writer whose forthcoming book is based on Russo's life.

Truman has produced another knowing look at Washington politics with this tale of conspiracy and murder that echoes through the halls of the FBI, the CIA, Congress and the West Wing.

This a really solid, well thought out mystery.
