Burnt Out

Third in the Irwin Glass series, following "Betrayal" and "Retribution," this book finds Irwin Glass teaching Remedial English for foreign students at Michigan Institute of Technology in Northern Michigan. He shares an office in the Humanities building with his wife Ivy Hartshorne who is expecting their baby. Irwin is asked by the FBI Agent Wilkins from Marquette to cooperate in a search for a potential terrorist among Irwin's Moslem students by providing a copy of the class lists. This seemingly harmless courtesy leads Irwin deeper and deeper into intrigue that has a profound and damaging effect on his own psyche. As Irwin realizes, there are possibilities that lead to probabilities that lead to suppositions and to facts that, true or not, can have devastating effects..
