Abe Cushman, the evil genius behind a sixty-billion-dollar Ponzi
scheme, has taken his own life, taken his secrets to the grave, and
Washington's power elite have a problem. They not only knew about
Cushman's fraud, but they looked the other way-even encouraged
Cushman's cataclysmic collapse, all in furtherance of a secret
government agenda known as Operation BAQ. Patrick Lloyd, a young
Wall Street advisor at the world's largest Swiss bank, has an even
bigger problem. His girlfriend Lilly has a direct tie to billions
of dollars in losses suffered by Cushman's most dangerous victims,
a group of powerful investors whose identities and dirty finances
are cloaked in secrecy. Patrick and Lilly are suddenly in a run for
their lives that leads to the heart of Operation BAQ, and to
certain government officials who will stop at nothing to keep their
secret agenda from going public. They are determined to uncover the
truth about Operation BAQ - and determined not to become collateral
damage in a financial war where casualties are no longer measured
in dollars and cents.
