QUINTER: An Adventure Story with a Heart. Thomas March Quinter, 44, is a Cleveland trial lawyer with a love for the law and a thirst for justice. Not long after leaving the safety of one of Cleveland's white shoe law firms to set up his own shop, he's approached by a former college classmate, David Bordman, an increas­ingly mysterious figure whose background since their days at Princeton includes the Navy, the CIA, and the U.S. State Department. Now Bordman offers Quinter a job complete with international travel, adventure and generous pay. The offer extends to Jennifer Milleux, Quinter's secretary, as well. Soon the pair embark on a journey that will change their lives forever. The picture darkens quickly as events spin out of control. In the United Sates, offices are ransacked, mur­der strikes, and clear Middle-Eastern connections are made apparent. Internation­ally, attacks and abductions are standard fare as Quinter and Jennifer pool their ef­forts to resolve increasingly complicated and threatening questions. Their quest becomes even more difficult as Quinter and Jennifer find themselves la­beled suspected killers, and become the objects of a nationwide manhunt. Will they be able to clear their names while si­multaneously discovering the reasons for the violence sur­rounding them? Quinter is determined to do so. His first task, however, will be to keep Jennifer and himself alive.
