THE ICARUS COMPLEX

Collusion and anteroom sex lubricate deals in high places as senators, generals, middlemen and even the President set up Pacific-General Aerospace Company for another contract in spite of the tragic failure of spacecraft ""Icarus."" Integrity surfaces in the persons of Judd Holloway, ill but still head of PGA, who puts down a partner's efforts to play dirty pool; widower Ross Madden, a consultant who sorts through the scandals; and Amanda, longtime PGA employee, believed by Judd's daughter Lisa, who is after Ross, to have been her father's lover. Ross cuts through the interweaving blackmail to tighten the noose and find true love. Unpleasant people and tiresome fornication.
