Having survived his rise to Chairman of Everest Capital,
the world's largest private equity firm, and the ferocious
attempts on his life that ensued, Christian Gillette
finally seems safely perched atop the financial industry. He's just accepted Everest's largest private investment,
he's poised to takeover his ex-rival's sinking firm, and
he's just embarked on his firm's most exciting venture to
date, buying the NFL's newest team -- the Las Vegas Twenty-
Ones. Plus, one of his young employees -- an ambitious
deal maker named David Wright -- has caught his eye.
Wright reminds Gillette of himself just a few years back,
and he's drawn to the thought of teaching the wunderkind
everything the ups and downs of the industry. But
everything comes to a screeching halt when a shadowy man
calls him to a meeting, requesting a favor and offering in
return new information about Gillette's father and his
still mysterious death. Christian Gillette can't stand to be controlled, but he
also can't afford to lose a chance at finally learning
something substantive about his father's death. And as he
becames more entangled with the strange deal, and the
frantic pace of business continues without his full
attention, he feels his grip on Everest weakening -- and
soon realizes his life is once more in desperate jeopardy.
When all signs begin to point to David Wright, Gillette
realizes that his toughest decision as Chairman lies
directly ahead...
