********************************************************************************
Travis McGee isn't your typical knight in shining armour. He only works when his cash runs out, and his rule is simple: He'll help you find whatever was taken from you, as long as he can keep half.

32-year-old Mona is in love with a poor, young college professor, but is trapped in a marriage with a wealthy businessman whom she is convinced is stealing from her trust fund. To get out, she does what any self-respecting woman would do: she hires someone to steal her money back so she can run away with the man she loves.

Travis McGee isn't sure he wants to help out...until he sees Mona shot dead on the cliffs near her cabin.

But when he arrives at the scene, her body is gone. And there's no trace of them ever having met.

Will Travis prove that what he saw was real, and unravel a complex murder web, in time to save his own skin?

FIRST PUBLISHED IN 1964, A PURPLE PLACE FOR DYING INCLUDES AN INTRODUCTION BY LEE CHILD.
