Publisher's Synopsis
David Edwards is a brilliant young lawyer who has traded his law practice for a thriving investment business. In the course of his business, he has stumbled upon the ultimate treasure: gold that was stolen by the Nazis in WWII. David becomes engaged in an international high-stakes game of intrigue, endangering his family and himself as he seeks to liberate this fortune. At the same time, a very wealthy family, who has kept this gold secret for over seventy years, has started the process of retrieving it for themselves.
David is trying to perform a balancing act. While trying to secure this fortune for himself and his family, the pressure on David is mounting. His business is being challenged by forces beyond his control, his family is demanding more and more of his time and attention, and he is certain that he is being followed by at least two groups who want the gold for themselves.
As Edwards chases all over Europe to bring his fortune home, the pressure on him builds. His best friend has been killed, he is being stalked by former Nazis, he is being watched by the Mossad, and he is engaged in a legal battle with bankers trying to steal him blind.
David faces with mounting obstacles to obtaining his fortune. His money has run out, his wife is threatening to leave him, and his world seems to be falling apart.
David is oh-so-close to realizing his dream when he encounters a pressure-packed showdown with the bankers. As The Deal reaches its dizzying final conclusion, David is tempted by a beautiful woman, he is pursued by killers, and he is helped by a surprising ally.
