Elected to the board of a top London bank, Mike Townsend is just beginning to enjoy the good life, but a possible partnership with a very wealthy man thrusts Townsend into a dangerous situation that could threaten his career and even his life. He's got two lovers, his secretary, loyal Jean, and eccentric wealthy Sue Townsend, a woman who commits suicide at the beginning of the novel.

A Greek man thinks he's found the biggest diamond mine in the world in an island he won't disclose. Mike hesitates, but he's finally convinced to visit the island.

Lucky you who have found this out-of-print novel. It looks like the author had an adventurous life prior to becoming a best-selling novelist. At least, he could devise good plots - there are at least three major twists to the plot, and I couldn't see any of them coming.

THANKS

I'm going to share with a lecture club partner. Thanks!
