Bingham Harvard and his wife Katherine are pillars of New York society. But the Harvards’ elevated status isn’t high enough for them to avoid the clutch of crime, for unknown to most, Bingham is also The Night Wind, a hard-bitten crime-fighter with five times the strength of an average man. Together the pair resolve to take the battle against evil straight to the villains, rather than wait for fate to drop another scoundrel on their doorstep. Aided by the US Secret Service and by their valet, Julius, the Harvards race headlong to Westerville, Ohio, the 'Dry Capital' of the World--home to the Anti-Saloon League, leader of the successful drive for national prohibition. Then a half dozen speakeasies go up in flames in nearby Columbus, drawing organized crime thugs from New York to protect their business. Amidst this turmoil, Senator Warren G. Harding is conducting his campaign for President from the front porch of his home in Marion, Ohio. History is being made in central Ohio in the fall of 1920: will it be tragic or triumphant? Be prepared to be blown away by the first new Night Wind novel in nine decades. BEHOLD THE NIGHT WIND! 3
