    “Book Descriptions: TV megastar Jack Barron hosts the wildly popular Bug Jack Barron, a phone-in show that listens to public gripes & puts politicians & bosses on the spot - live. Naturally Barron pulls his punches for safety's sake - until he tangles with paranoid billionaire Benedict Howards, peddler of cryonic immortality, and walks into a minefield of deadly cover-ups.

    Violence erupts. Howards believes he can buy anyone, even Barron's estranged wife, even Barron. Barron doesn't mind selling out if the coin is immortality. On TV, the power remains his.

    The Foundation's medical secret is more appalling than Barron's nastiest guesses. By the time he learns the truth he's ensnared in complicity. Worse things follow. At the climax, with nothing left to lose, our man goes for broke in a desperate effort to crack Howards open in Barron's own glowing TV arena, in front of 100 million viewers.”
