Never mind: "The Millionaires" has an ingenious plot that you will never guess. That impresses me enough but, with "The Millionaires," Meltzer shows that he also knows a lot about high-level banking ? and computers ? and DisneyWorld! See if you can put those elements together. In some of his other novels, like "The Tenth Justice," "The First Counsel," and "The Zero Game," Meltzer displays his (apparently) first-hand knowledge of Beltway politics.
I like the way that he devises intricate plots within plots but most of all, I enjoy his insider knowledge. This is Brad Meltzer at his most electrifying-a breathtaking, suspenseful story about two brothers chasing a dream that may cost them everything they hold dear.With "The Millionaires," Meltzer is finally hitting his stride. What invisible strings were attached to that account? How are the brothers going to prove they're innocent? And why is the Secret Service trying to kill them? Trapped in a breakneck race to stay alive, Charlie and Oliver are about to discover a secret that will test their trust and forever change their lives. Before they can blink, a friend is dead-and the bank, the Secret Service, and a female private investigator are suddenly closing in. But when they do, they quickly discover they've got a lot more on their hands than the prize.
More important, for Charlie and Oliver, it's a way out of debt and the key to a new life.
No one knows it exists, and even better, it doesn't belong to anyone. But when the door of success slams in their faces, they're faced with an offer they can't refuse: three million dollars in an abandoned account.
Charlie and Oliver Caruso are brothers who work at Greene & Greene, a private bank so exclusive you need two million dollars just to be a client. Three Secret Service agents.And millions for the taking.Brad Meltzer, the author of the runaway bestseller The First Counsel, is back with another edge-of-your-seat thriller-a tale of two brothers trying to hide in a world where your every step can be traced.
