Artie Sherman has lived by his wits for seventy plus years. Among
his achievements is his role in making his friend a successful
playwright while making that friend, unbeknownst to everyone except
Artie, the drama critic of New York's most influential newspaper-at
the same time. This allows his friend to critique his own play and
cover it with encomiums. As a result of the Times' review, his
friend becomes the toast of Broadway. Artie's shrewdness can also
boomerang and can put him at serious risk of ending up in a cement
cutaway on the floor of The East River. When he discovers a play
that his friend wrote years before he senses a 'sure thing' since
his friend is both the playwright and the Times drama critic. Artie
decides to produce the play and as a theater producer he wheels and
deals with the wrong people who, not being seasoned theater angels,
expect a return on their investments. Artie learns the hard way
that there's no such thing as a sure thing. Artie's meeting and his
subsequent falling in love with Rita Adler, a truly unusual woman
gives him another reason for avoiding a painful, untimely ending.
He is captivated by her great Asian-American looks and by her
elegant style. Whoever said that opposites attract must have had
Artie Sherman and Rita Adler in mind. Fate, acting in concert with
Artie's survival instinct, saves him for a life with his beloved
Rita.
