Description
What do Caribbean islands, currency valuations and the forces behind global economics have in common? Ask Quaid! When a routine assignment suddenly runs aground he finds himself in dangerous waters. After buying more than 200 million Iraqi dinar in the last two years, Quaid was undecided whether it was a great investment or a scam. Either way, it made no difference to his lifestyle. His mistress was his only significant expense. Providing him with both a place to live and transportation it seemed a fair trade to pay her expenses. He spent a reasonable amount each year on their combined lifestyle. He was very pleased with this arrangement. After ten years of no watch, no regular job and answering to no one, he felt fairly autonomous. In the international sailing community, however, his solo lifestyle with strong personal sovereignty did not necessarily distinguish him. Beneath the shadowy elements of international banking, high speed trading platforms and global debt laundering lies the hidden game of international economic Monopoly. In a detailed blend of facts and fiction, Quaid finds himself in a developing storm with multiple hazards to navigate. With the addition of a savvy uninhibited 6’ investigator with more than one agenda, Quaid has more at stake than preserving his freedom. Following his own personal code, which includes poking fun at the serious while living large, Quaid deals with the unraveling events in his unique spur of the moment fashion.
