Man's Loving Family - Hardcover

George Man is glad to take a job bodyguarding merchant Abraham Sinclair's son, whose murder has been prophesied in an almanac. Man is less glad when the prophecy is fulfilled in front of him, by his friend Richard Savage. Man is sure another hand is behind the killing, and sets out to investigate.
