The Joseph File Alfred Harris

"A superior thriller from start to finish. The conclusion is hair-raising." Hartford CourantDavid Campbell is on a cross-country railroad trip when his train stops briefly late one night at a snowy, deserted station in Kansas. He steps off to make a quick call and glimpses two men carrying a covered body on a stretcher from the train to a waiting car. For an instant, the sheet slips from the corpse and he recognizes the lifeless face of John W. Joseph, the reclusive billionaire industrialist. So later he's baffled when he repeatedly sees Joseph in the media, very much alive. Soon Campbell is barely cheating death in one terrifying "accident" after another and his only hope of survival is to discover the truth before his luck runs out. Praise for THE JOSEPH FILE: "From the first hit-and-run, you will catch your breath and go right on holding it. An unstoppable story that thickens and quickens from page to page." Kirkus Reviews "From page one, the book never relaxes its grip on you." The Anniston Star"The ending is the best I've read in a long time," King Features Syndicate"Harris writes with intensity and handles dialogue beautifully." Miami Herald
