Stephen Frey finds Christian Gillette heading Manhattan-based investment firm Everest Capitol after his boss was murdered in the series debut, The Chairman.(don't miss that one either) Everest is a huge success, but disaster looms as Chris's right-hand-man, David Wright has a problem that he's trying to hide, but the mafia wants him to cooperate. What really happened when Chris's father died in a plane crash? What is the mafia trying to do with his deal in Las Vegas? To Frey's credit he is able to hold all these plots together (and more) and knit the tangled threads into coherence by the action-packed end. Great read in this second in a series.
Great story. Had to order the follow on book right after finishing this one.
It has this strange beginning that might put you off at first. Keep reading it is a good book
