Knight & Day

Not since Dashiell Hammet’s characters Nick and Nora Charles has a couple exchanged so much biting banter in the course of solving a murder mystery.

Capturing the turbulence of Southeast DC and the opulence of Georgetown, Knight & Day richly evokes the contrast between the mean streets of Washington and the corridors of power on Capitol Hill.

Jerry Knight is the “Night Talker,” the opinionated right-wing host of America’s most popular all-night radio talk show. Jane Day is a thoroughly liberated and thoroughly liberal woman, a very ambitious reporter for the Washington Post. When a prominent environmentalist is murdered, Knight and Day race against a deadline, and each other, to solve a mystery that goes straight to the Hill.
