Bobby West is on the edge. As chief financial officer for a Miami holding company - and a CIA front - he's over-leveraged his business in the go-go 1980s financial culture. Desperate, he turns to a deal-with-the-devil money laundering operation with local gangster Alexander French.
The deal goes south when $3 million goes missing.
Now Mr. French, a group of Cuban exiles, and an Israeli smuggler named Adriana Chekhov are all after Bobby West to pay up. With echoes of Iran-Contra and the Orwellian surveillance state, The Edge of America is a stunning thriller about greed, power, and the limits of the American dream.
Perfect for fans of Don Winslow, Elmore Leonard, and 1980s crime noir with a literary edge.
