Timing is everything: in music, comedy, sex, car motors . . . and murder. Jazz saxophonist Al Waters is blessed with good looks, musical talent, and charm . . . but cursed with an inability to hold on to success, both in career and in love. Although sexual conquests are an easy goal for him, he has always chased away opportunities for true intimacy. For a woman, to fall for him is to face heartbreak; for a man, to push him is to flirt with violence. Al has made enemies in too many ways, over too many years to worry about payback, or changing his ways . . . until he meets Stephanie.This enigmatic younger woman drops into his life, and sings her way into his heart; but she soon reveals a secret, with potentially devastating complications she could never have imagined. With Stephanie, Al’s life changes forever; as do the lives of all those around him, particularly his best friend, pianist Billy Crothers: an enormously talented but equally flawed man, addicted to a pernicious craving quite different from Al’s thirst for love.From New York, to Montreal, to Las Vegas, to Miami; in nightclubs, showrooms, dancehalls, and seedy bars . . . Al and Billy have survived a lifetime of hits and misses in their musical and personal lives. But another, much deadlier kind of hit or miss is about to change everything.
