Glint

"Quitman O'Neil sells used cars, and he's good at it: he understands his customers and he understands his life. His motto has always been "Live and let live," but lately he's finding himself in a world where only fools and dead men feel the same way." "The source of all his problems is a coin - not just any old coin, but the 64 D silver dollar. It has existed in collectors' circles only as a rumor, since the whole run was supposed to be melted down before it left the Denver mint. This one survived. With no idea of its worth, Quitman has filched the coin from his lover's desk simply because it was minted in the year of his birth. Now he's paying dearly." "Quitman's idle queries about the coin bring forth the attentions of single-minded collector Henry Lyman and his ruthless hired gun, Lester VanDyk. And then, when one of Quitman's colleagues is killed, the cops come down hard as well. With no one to turn to, the amiable young salesman must reach deep within himself to find the strength and determination to clear his name and escape from a world he never knew existed."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
