Про цю електронну книгу
A scam artist is on the run in New York City and her ex must find her or face deadly consequences in this crime thriller by the author of The Havana Room.
A New York Times Notable Book of the Year
A Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist
A Los Angeles Times Crime Fiction Favorite of the Year
Sun-Sentinel (South Florida) Best Mystery Novel of the Year
“Brutally effective . . . Harrison spins a fast-paced NYC crime novel. . . . Start reading this book and prepare to cancel all other plans for the next seven hours or so.” —Entertainment Weekly
Jin Li is a beautiful, driven young woman running a dangerous little operation. Manhattan corporations hire her for a simple but delicate task: to shred and destroy their highly classified documents. But they don’t know that she and her brother, Chen, have been using their discarded secrets to game the international markets, making a pile of cash. When someone uncovers their scheme, two of Jin Li’s workers die a grisly death, and Jin is on the run. Her brother extorts Jin’s old flame, Ray Grant—a man with a disturbing 9/11 past—to track her down. He’ll have to comb every strata of New York, from the brutal Mexican mafia to the greed-fueled penthouse billionaires of Wall Street, to find her . . .
An intricate tale of avarice, corruption, and power, Colin Harrison’s masterful thriller is a “brilliantly executed novel” (The Baltimore Sun).
“A chilling, high-speed roller coaster of a ride that doubles as a sardonic sightseeing tour of the seamier side of New York City.” —The New York Times
