Описание: In this gripping new thriller, with unmatched suspense and emotional insight, Wright explores what a man is willing to do when everything he ever loved has been taken from him. _____________________________ "Best book ever. I could not put it down " - Maryellen Geiger _____________________________ Former FBI rising star, Lawson Raines, isn't the man he used to be. He's become a monster. Losing your wife, your daughter, and spending ten years behind bars will do that to a man. Especially an innocent one. Now Lawson's life sentence has been pardoned, and the people who conspired to put him away are desperately scrambling to bury their little secret in the Las Vegas desert once and for all. Dodging bullets while chasing clues, Lawson races to uncover the truth behind the conspiracy against him. Along the way, friends become enemies, enemies become friends, and a broken man realizes that his only path to redemption, is revenge. But that path is paved with powerful people--dangerous people. People that took everything from him. And if Lawson can evade their pursuit long enough to find them, he hopes to prove that even when the odds are definitively stacked against him, a man with nothing to lose might just be the most dangerous of them all. Jaw-dropping surprises, an edge-of-your-seat pace, characters that leap off the page, and one man's journey so intense that When the Man Comes Around will leave your palms sweating and your heart racing until the very last page. ___________________________________ Dear Reader, If you enjoy Brad Thor, Daniel Silva, David Baldacci, Lee Child, Tom Clancy, Stuart Woods, Nelson DeMille, Ken Follett, Vince Flynn, James Patterson, Tim Tigner, or Clive Cussler, my fans believe you'll have a blast reading my books as well. I realize that life can be expensive, the kids/grandkids need fed, the lights need to stay on, and the car doesn't run on hopes and dreams. I understand, because the same goes for me. And while I can't help you with those expenses, I can offer you hours of exciting escape for the price of your morning coffee. Thank you for your consideration, Bradley
Описание: Named a Best Book of 2018 by the Financial Times and Fortune, this New York Times bestseller about the 1MDB scandal exposes how a "modern Gatsby" swindled over $5 billion with the aid of Goldman Sachs in "the heist of the century" (Axios). Now a #1 international bestseller, BILLION DOLLAR WHALEis "an epic tale of white-collar crime on a global scale" (Publishers Weekly, starred review), revealing how a young social climber from Malaysia pulled off one of the biggest heists in history. In 2009, a chubby, mild-mannered graduate of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business named Jho Low set in motion a fraud of unprecedented gall and magnitude--one that would come to symbolize the next great threat to the global financial system. Over a decade, Low, with the aid of Goldman Sachs and others, siphoned billions of dollars from an investment fund--right under the nose of global financial industry watchdogs. Low used the money to finance elections, purchase luxury real estate, throw champagne-drenched parties, and even to finance Hollywood films like The Wolf of Wall Street. By early 2019, with his yacht and private jet reportedly seized by authorities and facing criminal charges in Malaysia and in the United States, Low had become an international fugitive, even as the U.S. Department of Justice continued its investigation. BILLION DOLLAR WHALE has joined the ranks of Liar's Poker, Den of Thieves, and Bad Blood as a classic harrowing parable of hubris and greed in the financial world.
