City boys Daniel and Charles have worked for years in the financial sector selling stocks, shares and other assets. As their lifestyles and personal expenses expand, they decide to start their own trading business. They believe they know how to realise their fortune in simple, if not always legitimate, ways.
Over time, and having involved their wives, behaviours begin to shift and things go from trust to dishonesty. Their focus switches from financial independence to avoiding getting caught; and their illegal practices lead to an ever-deepening involvement with international criminal organisations. Soon, the city boys are facing insurmountable and unsavoury challenges both at work and in their family lives. The further their activities extend internationally, the deeper they find their difficulties developing at home…

Over de auteur
Staffan Nordstrand is a successful writer who never planned to be one. Staffan’s early life was full of many challenges. At an early age, despite his parents’ attempts to reign in his adventurous spirit (at one point, they tied his tricycle to a flagpole causing him to cycle endlessly in a circle), he began to break free from their constraints.
After surviving his teenage years on the back streets of Stockholm, he went on a dramatic transformation, educating himself and pulling himself up to take advantage of various opportunities.
Although occupying top positions at leading IT and construction companies, having taken managerial assignments for construction projects in Thailand, he found himself looking closely at the harsh realities of how society really worked behind the scenes. His adventures led him to investigate the darker and often dangerous areas of life, including human trafficking, arms dealing and drug smuggling.
Becoming a writer was never in his plans. But in 2011, he wrote his first novel and nine more followed. The stories in his books are based heavily on his real-life experiences.
David Bateson is a South African-born English actor, voice actor and comedian. He is best known for providing the voice of Agent 47, the protagonist of IO Interactive’s video game series Hitman.
