A Nordic Noir-style tax fraud novel. A tax lawyer Reno Grants helps a businessman Felix Blums, who is facing an extortion by the local mafia and corrupt officials. Both realize that the mafia's roots may run much deeper than just the authorities - the offshore and tax fraud network spreads across the world.
But then it gets worse. While making a charitable donation, Felix discovers that he is responsible for the fraud. As a result the mafia lost its money. He must pay up or he and his fiancée will face the consequences.
But his fiancée has also gone missing and has some secrets, too. The rules of the game are simple: who will run faster and smarter - the mafia trying to get their money back, or Felix and Reno trying to find both the fiancée and the money?
The chase reveals how the tax, money and crime worlds are connected. With a hope that one day we will realize the system needs to be changed, so that offshore networks and tax dodging schemes are not possible anymore.
