Enjoyable and suspenseful read. (

It is a GREAT book, intense, but good values presented in the midst of the most evil men. A man gets rich quick, then loses it all, and presumably commits suicide, leaving his wife and sweet kids holding his debts. They become the target of another unscrupulous rich man who wants to arrange a kidnap of the kids, or even one of them, and let the ransom rebuild his fortune. [He was unaware of Allan Barnes’ loss of fortune.] Some ex-cons are hired to kidnap. A great team of an FBI agent and a SFPD cop come into the picture and the excitement goes on from there. At the end, one of the cops, Ted, and Fernanda Barnes fall in love. (
