Iguana

Iguana sizzles with the arrogance, obsession and rampant excesses characteristic of the titans of the energy trade of the late '80s and the '90s. Taut, compelling and believable, Iguanais a vividly textured roller-coaster ride that captivates the reader in the early chapters, tightens the grip in the middle and accelerates toward its exhilarating and satisfying conclusion at break neck speed. Rick Pope has everything a young rising star could want... stellar career prospects... a beautiful wife... a high-rise condo in the museum district... but... life as he knows it is irrevocably changed with one deadly career decision in this gripping tale of corruption. In this engrossing page-turner, Pope, a promising young energy executive, is plunged into a web of intrigue involving a powerful South American crime syndicate, one supported by a global infrastructure. He and his lovely wife, Mattie, finding themselves inextricably embroiled in a deadly game of wits, hunted by the syndicate and the FBI, seek the protection of former agent Kurt Braun, aided by the beautiful and cunning CIA officer, Beatriz Chavez. The reward of winning is great, and Rick and Mattie must balance that reward against the cost of their lives.
