Undermoney, Jay Newman

Reading Newman’s debut is a little like cutting a diamond. You can trace the fault lines and watch as they crack.

It started with a heist pulled off by a small group of soldiers, a two star general, a brilliant CIA asset and one idealist Senator. It leads to strange bedfellows; corrupted politicians, bankers with Vatican ties, private security firms linked to Putin and the inner sanctums (and madness)of the super rich.

And how does it end?

With many sleepless nights for the reader after the final page has turned.
