A Hank Tower Novel
The time is December 2009 when the Great Recession was near its worst and anger at Wall Street was widespread.
Are vigilantes exacting revenge on those they think caused the pain? The police and Mayor fear so; and when Hank Tower brings two killers to justice they consider the case closed. But Hank believes a more dangerous killer is still at large and is hiding behind the much-publicized hedge fund killings in order to execute a plot far more devastating than a few murders.
The fast-moving action includes a British aristocrat and his stolen sword of gold; a millionaire wastrel living with his divorced mother; a fired, mentally disturbed man whose father has to take a janitor’s job to feed the two of them; two professional killers, one from Azerbaijan called The Tsar; meetings, plots, murders and trysts in the MetLife Building, the Metropolitan Club, the “21” Club, Greenwich Village, Central Park, Times Square and other landmarks of New York City; as well as a visit to Paris and the small French island of St. Barth’s in the Caribbean. Here, the voluptuous widow of one of the murdered billionaires – who is now worth millions -- tries to bring Hank under her control and destroy his relationship with beautiful Carol Tomkin, who has her own innovative way of catching the criminals. All this diversity is tied together in an explosive ending.
