Synopsis: Mark Weir of the Chicago Police Department's Homicide Division suspects a connection in the murders of several army men in the Chicago area and asks his father, a retired Army General, to help him get access to the soldiers' records in the hope of discovering the connection. Meanwhile, Durham Lasari, Army private gone AWOL, is chosen by a drug smuggling ring with Army connections to be the next courier in their drug loop between Frankfort, West Germany, and Chicago. This is Lasari's story, and it is through him and his dealings with the ring in Chicago and Frankfort that intrigue and suspense build. Conflicts that arise between Chicago Police and U. S. Army over jurisdiction and methods, and the General's private investigation following the death of his son jeopardize Lasari's safety and heighten suspense. A Matter of Honor presents good views of contrasting neighborhoods and lifestyles as the action moves from Cicero to the Gold Coast to Cabrini Green to the O'Hare complex and other sites in the Chicago Metropolitan Area
