Death of an Escapologist by DAVID WILLIAMS with Michael Forrest and Liane Aukin
Kurt Schiller 's trade was a dangerous one - dropping to the ocean bed in a canvas sack fettered by chains and freeing himself in time to surface triumphantly a few minutes later. But one day he drops - and never surfaces. Accident - or something more sinister? It's a problem for Ross. hard-drinking private eye from a world rather less glossy than that of his screen equivalents.
