Pay for Play — Reed Bunzel

ON THE CHARTS.. WITH A BULLET

But while he dallies one evening with a beautiful redhead, the bullet-torn bodies of a record mogul and a call girl are riding the waves to shore. And when Logan wakes up, he is alone...and wanted for murder.

Now Stuart Logan must return to the mainland and the life he abandoned. For a killer is waiting for him somewhere in a sleazy world of payola, shady megabuck deals and fading rock stars. And the hits keep coming...
