Fandango - Karl Ballantine

The wall is down. The Iron Curtain has collapsed. But the danger is far from over.

In the shadows of the post-Soviet world, a deadly trade is flourishing. Weapons from abandoned Russian arsenals flow freely across borders, and billions in laundered money vanish into the global financial system untraceable, unstoppable.

Until now.

Simon Hamilton senior insolvency investigator, money laundering expert, and quiet servant of both city regulators and MI5 has built a careful, ordered life. But when a classified report goes missing, forty two nuclear devices disappear without a trace, and the body of a shadowy Russian businessman washes up off the coast of Spain, Simon's world is turned violently upside down.

Plunged into a labyrinth of political skulduggery, international intrigue, and lethal ambition, Simon must draw on every skill he possesses. Because somewhere out there, a rogue actor is planning the unthinkable and the clock is already ticking.

The fandango is a dance of twists, turns, and perfect timing.

Can Simon Hamilton master the steps before it's too late?
