The Mechanic

Morton’s Fork Oliver Cade has built a brilliant career seeing what other smart people miss. Then he sees something that was never meant to be seen. Now INTERPOL wants him. So does the CIA. So do some of the most dangerous people in the world. Oliver is on track to make partner at McArthur & Co., one of the world’s most prestigious strategy consulting firms. But during a routine assignment in Istanbul, he can’t unsee an anomaly in a business deal everyone else is happy with. The trail leads him to an invisible bank for the underworld, moving billions for criminal empires, dictators and terrorists. Its architect, Leon Vassilou, is every bit as clever as Oliver, with vastly greater resources, dangerous connections and a ruthless determination to leave no loose ends. Oliver has no badge and no gun. Leon has money, power and men who kill. Oliver’s career, the people closest to him and the life he has built are all at risk. As the two men engage in a deadly battle of wits, the contest escalates into a race against time, with the fate of a nation at stake. Every way forward costs Oliver something. Some cost everything.
