Five years before the Egyptian Revolution, media mogul Billy Lansky and his protégé, Charlie Cardinal, no sooner arrive in Cairo to join an archaeological dig in search of an alleged chamber beneath the Sphinx, when they are abducted by jihadis wielding AK-47s. An international philanthropist, Lansky is known to his captors, but exactly why he and his young assistant face beheading remains a mystery. Radical Islamists say the Sphinx is sacrosanct. Will the Americans be sacrificed in reprisal? Or are the terrorists working with a Western power to bring Lansky down? To save millions of lives from famine and disease, he weaved an intricate web of the private-sector elite- billionaire altruists, heads of progressive NGOs, celebrated fund managers, and power geniuses-in such formidable philanthropy that governments see their sovereignty threatened and go after him. Or do they? Citizen Lansky is a satirical, fast-paced intrigue spanning five continents.
