Omtale fra Den Norske Bokdatabasen
At the urgent plea of a friend, Tweed, once ace detective, now Deputy Chief SIS, with Paula Grey, visits Bella Main, formidable matriarch controlling the Main Chance, the most powerful private bank in Europe. She tells them that she has refused an enormous offer from Calouste Gubenkian, the most ruthless and villainous man in Europe. Within days of their visit Bella is murdered. Tweed and Paula return to investigate the atrocious act. The bank's HQ is based in a huge Elizabethan manor hidden in The Forest, a vast area in the deep south of England. Tweed has already met members of the two families which have run the bank for generations. The movement never stops, changing to Calouste's Chateau Les Rochers in the Belgian Ardennes. A ferocious battle takes place. Two more murders are committed at the manor. Tweed and Paula race to tiny Seacove on the rugged Cornish coast to prevent another murder. Finally, Tweed proves the Bank, founded in 1912, was based on a brutal crime all those years ago.
