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.
