The First Billion

John ´Jett´ Gavallan, a former fighter pilot, now the high-flying CEO of Black Jet Securities, is banking on the riskiest gamble of his career. In exactly six days, he will take Mercury Broadband, Russia´s leading media company, public on the New York Stock Exchange. Billions are at stake, but rumours that the company is a fraud place the deal on a knife-edge and when his number-two man disappears in Moscow, Jett finds himself trapped in a deadly conspiracy. Hunted by the FBI and a band of elite killers, Jett races from Palm Beach to Zurich to Moscow in his search for answers…but the truth comes at a terrible price.
