Synopsis: A copywriter&’s wife has vanished, and only John Easy is slick enough to save herJim Benning makes $25,000 a year writing drivel for the admen at the Arbogast & Joseph Agency, and his wife thinks he&’s worth a whole lot less. Joanna is a model: nervous, beautiful, and prone to meltdowns. In a last-ditch attempt to save their marriage, she agrees to a few sessions with a psychiatrist in San Ignacio—a quack whose psychobabble is more sinister than it appears. But when Joanna disappears, Jim&’s only hope is John Easy, the hippest P.I. in Hollywood. Jim gives John a matchbook found in his wife&’s purse for a club called Maybe—a swinger&’s hideout where morality is not in style—and John plunges into the seedy side of sunny San Ignacio, where the copywriter&’s wife led an entirely different sort of existence. To save Joanna from her shadow self, John Easy will have to swing harder than ever before.
