In an age of cybercrime Finn is a thief with a unique specialty: He only steals big things. Fresh out of prison, he is faced with his biggest steal yet: Breaking out fifty million dollars' worth of rhodium. To do so, Finn calls in the team that put him in prison. But things get twisty when Finn navigates the betrayals of double-crossing partners, a corrupt billionaire, and the ambiguous proposals of a woman.
Mike Cooper received raves from Library Journal and Booklist for Clawback, his first book featuring tough-guy auditor Silas Cade. In Full Ratchet, Silas takes his firepower-packed brand of financial reform to Pittsburgh, where he finds widespread corruption at a manufacturing plant. His discoveries soon draw the ire of trigger-happy Russian mobsters and a blonde assassin named Harmony--and put Silas on a collision course with a bullet-riddled showdown.
A tough, topical financial thriller that exposes the dark underbelly of Wall Street.
After a stint in the Middle East, black ops vet Silas Cade becomes an "accountant"-the go-to for financiers who need things done quickly, quietly, and by any means necessary. Silas is hired by a major player to pay a visit to a hedge fund manager to demand clawback: the mandatory return of compensation paid on a deal that goes bad. But before Cade can tell his client that he got his ten million back, the guy turns up dead.
And he's not the first. Someone's killing investment bankers whose funds have gone south. Silas's scrubbed identity, and his insider's perspective, makes him the ideal shadow man to track down whoever's murdering some of the most hated managers on Wall Street. With the aid of a beautiful financial blogger looking to break her first big story, Silas tracks a violent security crew who may be the key to the executions. But as paranoia and panic spread, he begins to wonder: is the threat coming from inside the game-or out?
With breakneck pacing, nonstop action, and cutting edge details of today's financial intelligence technology, Clawback hurtles to its final twist, a gripping contemporary tale of shady finance, venal corruption, and greed run rampant.
