Publisher's Synopsis
Skywalkers are vertigo-free souls who rivet and bolt together the steel in skyscrapers. Lone Wolf is an Apache skywalker who works on high-rise buildings somewhere on the planet while the details of the hostage rescue he was hired to perform come together. In THE SKYWALKER he is up against a Yakuza, a Japanese organized crime family with unlimited resources and a private army who bring to life an old blood-feud in order to extort the fortune from a dying old enemy. The target of the extortion is a four-year-old, multi-lingual heiress with a photographic memory who they plan to kill after they get the money. After saving her from a kidnap-murder attack in the Los Angeles airport which kills the child's father and wounds Lone Wolf, she is kidnapped again, but Lone Wolf steals her back in a Mexican action scene and an international chase is on. The adventure rolls from Los Angeles, through Mexico, to Peru, Singapore and Japan. Up against seemingly impossible odds, Native American mysticism levels the playing field enough that the Yakuza soldiers capture Lone Wolf, but they just can't find where he hid the little girl, and without her they don't get the two hundred million dollar ransom. Non-stop action you can see happening will keep this book open and does not end until an emotional surprise on the last page.
