This is a novel about a prince of Dubai, who devises a scheme to rob banks and casinos of hundreds of millions of dollars in what is perceived as a perfect crime.
Prince Yousif Latif, who holds a PhD in Mathematics from UCLA, employs a large high-speed craft (HSC) made in Australia, which is outfitted as a megayacht suitable for a billionaire. The craft holds a secret cargo used to bypass computer protection software programs. Cybercrimes are staged around the world where the rich and famous reside: Monaco, Bermuda, Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
The book is filled with the exploits of the playboy prince, who has close friends sworn to secrecy and many others--such as harbormasters, who are clueless as to the real purpose of the megayacht. Once the crimes are discovered, the International Police Organization (INTERPOL) is mobilized but, eventually, runs out of clues, resulting in a cold case.
This is not a who-done-it novel in the usual sense because the reader is gradually brought into the plot and figures it out. However, the real mystery is whether the prince can ultimately complete his bold mission, resulting in a perfect crime.
