Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Heart of Desire
IT was with a sense of relief that Horton Payne hung up his damp overcoat and disposed of his um brella. Even the stuffy red plush seat and the air of the smoky over-heated car were preferable to the clammily-cold atmosphere without. He had walked a block in the half-frozen slush, and he lifted first one and then the other of his well-shod feet, inspecting their damp soles. Not wet through, was his comment.
