Never Too Late to Die

About the Book

When a squad of combat engineers blows up a decrepit building in the waning days of the Vietnam War, they set off an obsession in a CIA agent, which leaves a decades-long trail of blood coast to coast across the United States. Private investigator Harley Napoleon, hired by the widow of one of the engineers, gets snared in a web of lies and threats as he tries to solve the puzzle of what happened back then and winds up at odds with a present-day mobster, congressman, and general.

About the Author

James M. DiClerico is a resident of Florida who lives in Stowe, Vermont, during the summer months. A graduate of Lehigh University, he concluded after a few years of practicing engineering that the world would be safer without his involvement in bridges, dams and tall buildings. He reinvented himself as a public relations writer, eventually becoming an executive with one of the largest firms in the field; his postings included New York City, Brussels and Washington, D.C. He later owned his own company for ten years. Upon retiring, he began to pursue a lifelong ambition to write books. In addition to a non-fiction book on baseball and a memoir of his grandfather, this is his third mystery.
