{"product_id":"2940013591479","title":"The Arrows Family Chronicles: Volume I","description":"Although Lexie Reeves cannot fly or sling herself from one high-rise building to another, she has the capability of saving countless lives. Like all superheroes, she has an evil arch-nemesis with loyal associates, an entire cast of villains spread out across New York City. But these are not your average villains derived from the colorful pages of a comic book. Instead of hanging out in gloomy alleys or hiding in dark corners of the city, these high-class criminals are immersed in the narrow sliver of bright light cast upon the fortunate few. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA decade ago, Lexie’s father--a prominent Senator representing New York--and her entire family was murdered under very suspicious circumstances. The case was eventually closed after several drawn-out investigations provided nothing but dead-ends; however, Lexie’s sorrow and grief did not fade with the passage of time. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter discovering a document that contains a vital clue, she traces the source of her personal tragedy to the Manhattan corporate headquarters of AlphaAir Company. A plan is hatched as she latches onto the newest company recruit, Mitch Matthews, in order to pry valuable information from him. Shortly thereafter, she begins to realize that two very different businesses are based in a whimsical and mystical building in the Financial District. It is there that a small army of employees take on double lives as members of The Arrows Family. They are responsible for brazen art heists and high-profile assassinations that have been making headlines across the world. Time magazine writer, Lexie Reeves, has been reading as well as writing these headlines for several years. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOperation Thief, conducted at Loch Duich Castle in Scotland during the ‘Wedding of the Century’, creates shock, grief, and a world-wide desire for revenge, although the enemy is unknown.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShortly after its completion, an account is entered into The Arrows Family Chronicles, a set of books that contain vivid descriptions of various operations conducted by The Arrows Family over the last century. Within its covers are secrets to countless political conspiracies and assassinations. The operations are described in detail and told in a unique manner, much like a story. At this very moment, highly talented scribes are filling blank pages with beautiful penmanship and stunning calligraphy that tell of daring engagements in far-away lands. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdward Andrews is one of the writers. He is also CEO of AlphaAir Company, a multidimensional Fortune 500 tech company that designs and manufactures everything from the trendiest cell phones to the most advanced semiconductors. His quirky sidekick, Randy Tomzack, is a tech genius capable of creating the seemingly impossible and has launched countless successful tech products. Along with Mr. Andrews’ charming Chief Operating Officer, Robert Traylor, and his own son, Chris Andrews, the executives of AlphaAir are highly intelligent, calculating, and have proven effective in their relentless pursuit of profit. The company rode an impressive financial wave for more than a decade before the tech bubble officially burst in early 2000. The morale of employees at the New York headquarters is extremely positive considering the company’s relative downfall, for Mr. Andrews has given them everything they could have ever asked for in life: the best penthouses in New York; the rarest automobiles; the most exclusive art; the finest wine; and unlimited access to the best restaurants, hotels and entertainment that the world has to offer.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife is good as a member of The Arrows Family and the future is bright. But will it stay that way? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom high-fashion to Old World art, classical music to professional sports, Las Vegas to Beverly Hills to New York to Scotland, this fast-moving thriller takes a look at a cast of characters struggling to find truth and salvation under very different circumstances.","brand":"Bram Oceans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47083054989552,"sku":"2940013591479","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013591479_p0.jpg?v=1763583290","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013591479","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
