Inspector Sam Blackstone is still reluctantly seconded to the New York Police Department, and, to make matters worse, he finds himself in charge of an investigation no one else wants - the kidnapping of Big Bill Holt, a reclusive tycoon, and the brutal murder of his two bodyguards.
Who has snatched the Wolf of Wall Street? One of the many businessmen whose life he has ruthlessly destroyed? Or a criminal gang, eager to get its hands on his considerable fortune? The more Blackstone learns of the case, the less - it seems to him - he actually knows.
As Blackstone ploughs his way through the morass of lies and deceit which surrounds Holt and his family, he is aware that time is running out and that failure will not be tolerated.
A plausible and resourceful hero compliments a sophisticated plot - Publishers Weekly Starred Review
Provides enough wit, puzzlement and class warfare to delight the most devoted Blackstone fan - Kirkus Reviews
