four hundred and thirty days

A beautiful and well known celebrity is found nude and dead in her suite in a Las Vegas hotel. It was declared a suicide. She had a secret that goes all the way back to the White House and may figure in her demise. A dogged acquaintance who knew of her problem and is sure that it was not a suicide. He suffers through threats to him and his family to maintain his silence. He is ably assisted by an attorney friend that leads all the way back to The Tomb of the Unknowns (also known as the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier).
