Publisher's Synopsis
A Journalist Targeted for Assassination -- A Global Conspiracy of Billionaires Footing the Bill -- But Gar Hart has a Gun, and Won't Go Quietly into the Night...
"Gar Hart...twisting the tail of a leviathan as submerged as le Carré's dark webs. Author Mark Furness crackles out fire and ice in a wry voice, piles on inventive and ingenious mysteries, body-slams action, and bleeds characters as damaged and compromised as any Child, Connelly, or Grisham." Tom Flood, winner of the Miles Franklin Award.
Ride with a maverick journalist on a spell-binding adventure from the Australian outback to some of the world's most colourful cities as he cracks open a sinister underworld of the ultra-rich...
It begins when a Sydney billionaire's son suspiciously goes to prison for stealing money. Hart, and his colleague, Claire Styler, don't buy the PR line about mental illness. They dig deeper, unearthing a dark family secret. Now witnesses are turning up dead around the world.
Slipping from Sydney to the UK and China, trying to outplay shadowy pursuers - who are now targeting Hart's children - the reporters realize that exposing a grand conspiracy of business and political titans will take both a pen and a gun...
