Assassin's Game (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781475160406)

Governor Dan Walker's published titles include the award-winning The Maverick and the Machine, Southern Illinois University Press, 2007, his national best-seller-the "police riot" report on the 1968 Democratic National Convention-and another non-fiction award-winner. Governor Walker served as president of the Mob-fighting Chicago Crime Commission, but ten years after ending a scandal-free administration, he was convicted and served time in prison for a loan made by his S&L-which he resolved and which cost taxpayers nothing in bailout money. Governor Walker's unique background gives him a commanding perspective on the corruption pervading Illinois hardball politics. Peggy Lang ghost co-authors material ranging from political memoirs-The Maverick and the Machine-to lighter material-Diary of a Beverly Hills Matchmaker/Marla Martenson-to novels-a Silhouette Athena Force adventure-and screenplays. She also teaches narrative writing at UCSD and elsewhere. She enjoys writing as a non-ghost whenever possible.
