Someone once said, "Bad artists copy; great artists steal." The combination of art and theft might have inspired a different form of criminal activity: Money laundering through art galleries. Jack Tyrrell, former Green Beret and Deputy Marshal, is about to depart for a winter weekend with his fianc?e when he crosses paths with a young woman―the general manager of an art gallery―fleeing for her life from two men with murderous intentions. Before Tyrrell can get a cappuccino, he's plunged into the world of international art dealing, money laundering, sex trafficking, and weapons sales. The plot twists and turns from Greenwich Village in New York City to Upper Grosvenor Street in London, leading to a confrontation with a homicidal, narcissistic billionaire. Geoff Loftus is the author, most recently, of Fracture of the Soul and Casual Slaughters. "Had Philip K. Dick channeled Charles Dickens, Jack Tyrrell is the character he would have created. A clever mix of A Christmas Carol and a stylish modern thriller, action-packed yet soulful, traditional yet highly original." Theodore George, author of, The Deadly Homecoming and Murders on the Square
