This 21st Century thriller may be just up your street if you are already a fan of Patterson, Clancy or Larsson and like a storyline with more twists and turns than a sun bathing rattlesnake. For example, did greed ridden Atlanta billionaire Levi Goldman really understand that once he made a contract with the ‘Yegg’ man … he was committed?

A secret vault nearly 200 feet below London’s Bryanston Street, built by the controversial wartime British Special Operations Executive to protect the names of its spies, is now the resting place for other priceless WWII memorabilia … billions of dollars worth of artworks, stolen by a fanatical Hitler from its mainly Jewish owners in 1942.

The mysterious ‘Yegg’ man, master safe cracker and explosives expert, is contracted to steal three particular paintings from this underground store, but when he does, the moody trickster Levi Goldman refuses to pay the agreed fee. As a result, his lifelong work collecting art and classic American motor cars goes up in smoke and from that very moment … the chase is on!

Specialist thief catcher, Damon Kendrick, is tasked with tracking down the ‘Yegg’ man and recovering the stolen artworks on behalf of the severely exposed Zaymar Insurance Company. But are there just too many obstacles in the way and has he foolishly allowed his scheming employer, the beautiful Isobel, to become his love interest?

Russian Kremlin front man Dimitri Volenskia thinks he has been double-crossed when he tries to grab the paintings in what he sees as a fire sale. To guarantee success, he lets his stunning but devious head of security, Christina Gomez, loose on the matter.

The bodies begin to pile up. Is Kendrick in control? Christina doesn’t think so. Is the one man seemingly at the centre of it all, US Presidential candidate Gerald T. Hanover, able to stay cool and calm? Not if the ‘Yegg’ man has anything to do with it.

Can Kendrick survive the ride along such an undulating road? And what about the mysterious ‘Yegg’ man … could he end up being the last man standing? There’s only one way to find out …!

This latest novel from master story teller Quentin Cope is filled with energy and characters you will get to know better with every turn of the page. From one determined sleuth to a collection of vengeful gangsters, there are things that money simply can’t buy … even if you are a billionaire!
