Description


To a Formula One driver, speed, wheel-to-wheel combat, and danger are all part of everyday life. But things turn sinister at the Monaco Grand Prix: Remy Sabatino's car is sabotaged, and a teammate only just defies death when he suffers a horrific crash. Are these incidents in any way connected? Matt Straker, former Marine and corporate intelligence director, is brought in to investigate, but he soon realizes that the perpetrators are incredibly and deviously clever. It is only by outsmarting them that he can uncover a major conspiracy intent on far more than one man's life. They're after a prize so great they will stop at nothing to get what they want. The real stars of Vintcent's novel are the incredible machines, the people behind them, and the steel-nerved drivers who race them. You don't have to be a racing fan to relish this exciting thriller.--Publishers Weekly Vintcent draws upon his experience and expertise as an avid Formula One racing fan to deftly craft a riveting novel that pays considerable attention to descriptive accuracy in detail and background.--Midwest Book Review.
