Dan Gordon, an investigative attorney who tracks hidden assets for the U.S. Department of Justice, finds himself involved in far more complex issues in his current case. Following the trail of Raymond DeLouise, who absconded with 90 million dollars from his failed bank, Gordon goes to Munich to find him. DeLouise turns up dead, the victim of an execution-style murder. As he digs deeper into the matter, Gordon finds his training as a former Mossad agent useful. It seems that DeLouise had three passports, one of them Israeli, and he was involved with more than money laundering. Was he procuring nuclear materials for Iran? Dan has to work with the CIA, the Mossad, and the Munich police to solve this case. This is Carmon’s first novel. Readers who enjoy thrillers will hope that Dan Gordon has more adventures planned.
