Description
The Emperor of Japan is a pyromaniac, living in the orange groves of Echo Valley. Tom Huttle, his house destroyed by a frozen ball of piss from a passing airliner, is in Baltimore to collect a writing award, while his wife and her bawdy traveling companion are kidnapped by Arab terrorists while on an Egyptian holiday.It's up to Tom to save the day--and he might be able to do it, if only Cairo CIA Station Chief Harry Hump Purvis didn't believe he was at the center of a plot to conquer the world. Fast-paced, twisted, and always surprising, Huttle to the Rescue skewers everything from post Cold War political paranoia, to sexual taboos, to our fascination with youth, beauty and celebrity.
