Publication Information
Thomas Bolden grew up on the streets, his childhood a blur of fragmented memories. But now he’s managed to put his past behind
him, find the woman he wants to share his life with, and carve out a
successful career on Wall Street. Until, in the blink of an eye, his
world is turned upside down. A bizarre kidnapping sends him fleeing
for his life, his face everywhere on the TV news, and a violent,
shadowy organization is framing him for crimes he did not commit.
"Reich's conspiracy thriller eventually loses the momentum needed
to deliver on the tight suspense it promises."' - Publishers Weekly
"The book offers too little of the financial wheeling and dealing
that Reich (Numbered Account, 1997, etc.) does better than anyone
else, and too many leftovers from other thrillers. The results may
leave you stirred, but not shaken." - Kirkus Reviews.
