Former U.S. marine and Harvard Business School graduate Nicholas Neumann seems to have it all: a dream job, a beautiful fiancée, a future bright with promise. But beneath the dazzling veneer of this golden boy is a man haunted by the brutal killing of his father seventeen years before. And when new evidence implicates the venerable United Swiss Bank in the crime, Nick finds himself willing to do whatever it takes to uncover the truth. Leaving behind everything he holds dear, Nick takes a job in Zurich with the United Swiss Bank, and is soon plunged into a world where everything — loyalty, power, even life and death — can be bought and sold for the right price. As the secrets of the venerable bank are laid bare, suddenly Nick knows far too much — about the offer he never should have accepted, about the money he never should have handled, about the woman he never should have loved.

John ‘Jett’ Gavallan, a former fighter pilot, now the high-flying CEO of Black Jet Securities, is banking on the riskiest gamble of his career. In exactly six days, he will take Mercury Broadband, Russia’s leading media company, public on the New York Stock Exchange. Billions are at stake, but rumours that the company is a fraud place the deal on a knife-edge and when his number-two man disappears in Moscow, Jett finds himself trapped in a deadly conspiracy. Hunted by the FBI and a band of elite killers, Jett races from Palm Beach to Zurich to Moscow in his search for answers… but the truth comes at a terrible price.

At the end of WWII Erich Seyss, former SS officer and Olympic sprinter, known as the ‘White Lion’, uses his skills as a trained killer and escapes from the American POW camp holding him.

Hard on his heels is Devlin Judge, an American lawyer who has his own reasons for wanting Seyss brought to justice. Devlin must find him at all costs — to prevent a catastrophe of horrifying proportions.
