Synopsis

When DC lawyer Jamie Maxwell returns to his hometown in Kansas after 25 years to help solve an old friend's murder, he gets involved in more than he bargained for. Delving into his friend's past, he discovers his role in a secret FBI/CIA project known as Salamander that has generated millions of untraceable dollars. Using his friend's clever clues, Jamie's snooping raises red flags in DC and puts him literally in the crosshairs of those who want Salamander kept secret. Torn between justice for his old friend and exposing associates back in DC, Jamie wanders in and out of his past amidst the events and colorful personalities of the annual Arkalalah celebration. The atmosphere provides a sharp contrast between a life and people Jamie once loved and his career amongst the DC politics and scheming that he has come to loathe. Arkalalah is a poignant story for anyone who believes that "you can't go home again," plus an exciting mystery involving an expose that makes "Iran-Contra" look like child's play.
