ABSOLUTE RISK

Available November 1st

"Flavorful writing, a brisk pace, and an intriguing plot seem to make the pages turn themselves. Absolute Risk is the work of a talented writer who knows how to hook his readers from the opening line."
—Richard North Patterson,
New York Times bestselling author

From the publisher:

An FBI Agent, disgraced and dead. A Muslim economist, deported from the US and tortured. The world's largest hedge fund, secreted off-shore. A Federal Reserve Chairman who suspects a dangerous connection among them—and private investigator Graham Gage, to whom he turns to learn the truth. From New York to Boston to Marseilles to Washington DC, Gage races to expose a economic terrorism conspiracy against the United States, his heart burdened and his work complicated by an uprising in western China in which his wife is caught, by ruthless Chinese business leaders, and by a PLA general gripping the largest army in the world with one hand, and Gage's wife in the other.

Underlying each plot turn are questions about the vulnerability of the debt-burdened US economy, the use of mathematical financial models, market manipulation, the use of rendition and torture, US corporate complicity in foreign corruption, and America's commitment to its own values.
