      About This Book

      Sid Halley's detective job was pretty dull until the day a bullet wound turned a routine investigative case into something decidedly more.

      Then things changed fast. The trail of his assailant led straight to the heart of a fast-paced world of high-finance intrigue, sadistic pleasure and ruthless sabotage where the stakes were high and death was the price for "accidental" betting over your head.
