Irving Wallace, one of the five most

and world events. And, it s about two

women who begin to suspect the

deadly game the man known as The

Almighty is playing.

Edward Armstead has lived much of

his life in the shadow of his t~amous

media lord lather. When his lather

dies, he leaves a will that makes it al-

most impossible for Edward to keep

the thing he wants most--control of a

powerful newspaper, the center of the

Armstead empire. Edward s deter~

mination to exceed his father drives

him to embark on two obsessive quests

--to make the New York tlecord the

number one newspaper in America at

any cost, and to make his father s young

mistress his lover.
