About this ebook

A few days before 9/11, a number of unidentified people invested heavily in the stocks of American and Untied Airlines and Transamerica Insurance.  They bought "put options" in the belief that the stocks would drop in price.  After the attack, those men made 22.7 million dollars. 

 

Fast forward to the present…

 

A brilliant economist has been fired and disgraced by the EU.  He is planning his revenge.  He will buy "put options" on the Euro in anticipation of a fall in the currency, which he will guarantee by killing the three individuals most responsible for holding the EU together.  

 

Antagonist Willem Coetzee has gathered the remnants of the Afrikaner Resistance Movement (AWB) to pull off four of the greatest heists in modern times, in order to fund his operation.

 

American Code 6 operative, Paul Decker, and the beautiful, but deadly, Mossad officer, Alex Stern, pick up the sent and begin to pursue this deranged man.

 

The second half of the book is a pursuit through Europe of this madman by my protagonist, Paul Decker, and his counterpart, the beautiful Mossad agent, Alex Stern.

 

As the story evolves, so does the love affair between Paul and Alex.

 

Even with the assistance of Paul's brilliant East European hacker, Pavlik Lasky, they remain one step behind the fiend as he slices a path of death through the heart of Europe…a chase more intense that that of the Jackal stalking Charles De Gaulle.

 

The book presages the precarious nature of the EU and Euro and the desperate efforts of Germany and EU Banker Mario Draghi to preserve the union.

 

So entwined is the EU with other economies that the ripple effects of a crash would reverberate across the entire world

Author

Jeffry Weiss

BIOGRAPHY Mr. Weiss attended Central High School, at the time recognized as the top High School academically in the U.S.  He then attended Drexel University where he gained a BS in History, Temple University where he earned an MA in Economics and the University of Pennsylvania where he received an MA in International Affairs.  Those studies provided him with unique insights in the realm of foreign policy, military capabilities, détente, and trade. He has been a writer for forty plus years and has penned hundreds of articles on social, political, and economic issues.  He has written position papers for the Carter and Clinton Administrations and his work on social issues has received recognition directly from the office of the President of México.  He speaks regularly with Noam Chomsky on political, economic, cultural, and military issues. Mr. Weiss writes political, military, economic and scientific thrillers.  There are now twelve books in the Paul Decker series.  All his stories come right off the front pages of the major magazines and newspapers but none of his plots has ever found their way into novel before.  His characters are ones readers can relate to: flawed, not superheroes.  His stories do not require a leap of faith or use deus ex machina. Finally, he has written a stage play, “Einstein at the Guten Zeiten (good times) Beer Garden, and an urban horror novel: “The Art of Theft”, a modern day version of “The Picture of Dorian Grey” by Oscar Wilde.
