Dead Air

It's a hard thing to accept that someone wants you dead. It forces you to decide if you have anything worth living for.

When radio morning host Lee Garrett finds a death threat on his control console, he shrugs it off as a prank. Until a series of minor harassments turns into undeniable attempts on his life. The suspects are many - he's made enemies - and the police are strangely uncooperative. The radio career he loved has turned sour, leaving behind a dwindling audience and the wreckage of his marriage. Then the friendship of a newly blind boy and the boy's attractive teacher offer unexpected hope. Maybe he can make a fresh start.

But when the deadliest assault yet claims an innocent victim, Garrett knows he has no choice - he has to find his persecutors and force a confrontation. The extraordinary outcome will test the limits of an ordinary man.
