What is Corruptly Procured/a Richard Michaelson Mystery about?

The Cold War may be over, but retired foreign service officer Richard Michaelson is finding Washington, D.C., anything but peaceful. At a government reception in the Library of Congress, a sudden explosion lands Michaelson in the hospital and allows a German nationalist group to steal the library's Bible. Soon afterward, a top Washington law firm offers him a consulting job he doesn't want, but before he can decline gracefully, one of the firm's partner is crushed to death in a suspicious accident. Through his government contacts and the help of aspiring politician Wendy Gardner, Michaelson discovers a disturbing connection between the law firm and the library theft - a discovery that causes a net of capital intrigue and infighting to tighten around him as he tries to avert an international catastrophe. Fast-paced, witty, and expertly crafted, Corruptly Procured is Richard Michaelson's most challenging and entertaining case to date.
