Hot mahogany

by Stuart Woods

CIA boss Lance Cabot hires Stone Barrington to watch over his brother Barton, a former army intelligence officer suffering from amnesia. As Stone discovers, Barton is a spy with a rather unusual hobby: building and restoring antique furniture. Barton is also a man with a past that is linked to the jungles of Vietnam more than thirty years earlier. Stone soon finds out that Barton, and some shady characters of his acquaintance, may be hiding a lot more than just a few forged antiques.
