Podrobnosti o e‑knize
A financial empire is about to be shattered by a terrifying international conspiracy. Can Desmond help his friend Harlequin save his bank - and his family?
Paul Desmond admires his close friend George Harlequin for his impeccable European breeding. Head of a prestigious Swiss bank, Harlequin belongs to a vanishing class of gentlemen whose handshake is their bond.
Then their gilded world is blown apart. A computer printout identifies the Harlequin et Cie bank as the target of a gigantic takeover. The mastermind is Basil Yanko, a ruthless financial genius whose instruments are fraud, blackmail and terror.
As the conflict moves from Zurich to London, New York and Mexico, Harlequin must become a 'villain by necessity'. Can Desmond help his friend save his bank-and his family?
'A skilfully woven web of fraud, blackmail and murder.' The Sunday Telegraph
'In a tiny group of best-selling novelists, Morris West qualifies as the brains of the organisation.' Time
