Publisher's Synopsis
STEPHEN KING ON CHRISTOPHER SMITH: "Put me down as an enthusiastic Christopher Smith fan. Smith is a cultural genius."
From the #1 International Best-Selling author of Fifth Avenue comes Smith's best thriller yet! TWELVE PEOPLE TARGETED FOR DEATH... Five years ago, each person sold out to the SEC and took the stand against Maxmilian Wolfhagen, the infamous arbitrageur who robbed the world of billions and brought about the collapse of the stock market. Now, with Wolfhagen out of prison, one by one, each is dying a grisly death. TWO ASSASSINS WITH ONLY 48 HOURS TO CUT A SWATH OF MURDER AND REVENGE THROUGH NEW YORK... With the time restraints so tight, the challenges are massive--but so are their ruthless skills. MARTY SPELLMAN IS ON THE CASE... Hired by the writer Maggie Cain to investigate Wolfhagen for a biography she's writing about him, private investigator Marty Spellman soon learns that all isn't what it seems as the twists pile up along with a sheer number of dead. His life is put on the line. His family is threatened. No one is who they appear to be. Who can he trust as the bulls of Wall Street start to run as the two assassins fully ignite their killing spree? READ WHAT EVERYONE IS SAYING ABOUT THE FIFTH AVENUE SERIES: "RUNNING OF THE BULLS IS AN EXCELLENT THRILLER! Take a private investigator, a news reporter, an author, a couple of detectives, a hit man and his partner, a psychic, and lots of influential people, add a series of murders, and you have RUNNING OF THE BULLS. There are really no "slow" parts to the book, but the last 1/3 has SO MUCH ACTION that you just have to finish it. I'm glad Christopher Smith is on our side." " Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "INSANE TWISTS AND TURNS! PLAN TO READ BULLS IN ONE SITTING! The pace, the plot twists, and the adrenaline-pumping surprises are just like the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona. With double-crosses and contingency plans becoming evident every few pages, it's hard to be sure just who's safe. Not everyone with big money is bad, and not every underdog is a hero - and with characters so real, they're like people you know, so it's very hard not to hate them, cheer for them, and worry about them if you put the book down!" Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "THE RIDE OF A LIFETIME!!!! A great novel by Christopher Smith! I am a fan of Stephen King, John Grisham, and John Saul, and I would put Christopher Smith right there alongside them. If you like a fast-paced book filled with twists and suspense and takes you on a ROLLERCOASTER RIDE OF THRILLS, then this book is definitely for you!! Bookworm64, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK! I am a huge fan of Dan Brown and John Grisham-and I would easily put Christopher Smith in their league. HE IS THAT GOOD! Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "ENTHRALLING!!! Smith knocked it way out of the park. EXCELLENT READ!!!" NetGalley reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "AMAZING!!!!!!!!... Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "WHAT A BOOK!! AND WHAT AN EXCELLENT STORY! I couldn't put it down. Read like crazy - waiting for each exciting twist and turn. Smith never disappoints; in fact, he makes you so connected to the characters that the many twists throw you for a loop. You don't know who you are pulling for, because Smith pulls the rug out from under you when you least expect it. You finish a chapter and think DID HE REALLY JUST DO THAT? Once you're hooked, you can't wait to read something else by him because you know you're in for such a treat! SMITH MAKES SOME OF TODAY'S WELL-KNOWN GREATS FAIL IN COMPARISON!!" Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
