Smart. Savvy. Retired. Bored. The members of The Martini Club include a former CIA operative, a one-time Washington ad man, an ex-journalist, a retired brothel owner, an ex-airline pilot, and a non-practicing rabbi.

Autorenporträt
As an award-winning investigative journalist, editor and political columnist, Alan Eysen wrote for 30 years about intertwining financial and political corruption. He was a lead member of the Newsday investigative team that won the 1970 Pulitzer Prize for exposing widespread corruption by Long Island public officials. He also taught journalism at the State University at Stony Brook, New York and Post College, a branch of Long Island University. After retiring, he worked as a speech writer for college presidents and as a political consultant to both Republicans and Democrats. Now he resides in the Lowcountry of South Carolina, where he continues to write, inspired by his fellow Martini Club members. Yes, they really exist.
