This is a "thrill in every chapter" book. Pascual is a reformed terrorist living under an assumed name and hiding from his former co-conspirators. After 20 years, he has assumed the safety of his family and himself is not in question. His family knows nothing about his former life, so he is doubly troubled when he is contacted by a group seeking his help with a planned money heist, or else. The dilemna he must face will set off a chain of events that keep the pages flying and Pascual racing from one bad guy to the next, just trying to stay alive.
I had not read any Dominic Martell titles but if this book is any example, I've been missing out on some very good reading. I'll be sharing with my reading circle and adding more to my TBR list.

When you’re dead, you’re dead, right? Well not so for Pascual. But it was supposed to be, he left that life behind.
Fast paced, pay attention to keep up. You will learn a great deal about the ins and outs of finance, legal and illegal.
Take this journey with Pascual and try not to get killed.
