A Chicago lawyer gets swept up in a conspiracy of spies, double-crosses, brainwashing, and murder.
Defense attorney John J. Malone may be a habituÊ of Windy City dive bars, but heâs never lost his balanceâuntil now. Not only is he shaken by the contract killing of his latest client, but one of his best friends, socialite Helene Justus, is turning into a complete stranger.
At the urging of a mysterious old college chum, the job-phobic heiress has suddenly taken a low-level position at a top-secret chemical research lab. Whatâs more, Helene is spending her mornings on the couch of an esteemed hypnotherapist. Itâs confusing as hell to her husband, Jake. To Malone, too. The last time he saw Helene she had no idea who he was.
Now itâs up to Malone to shed some light on the shadows of Heleneâs secret life. Somebodyâs playing mind gamesâand the power of suggestion is turning Helene into its most dangerous pawn.
