Ryker Shaheen and Armen Balfour are best friends. As MBA students at Columbia Business School, they resolved that one day they would put together the ultimate deal, “The culmination of all ambition”.
Years later, Armen had built a close relationship with the British financial tycoon Sir Orwell Benedict. On Orwell’s private jet from New York to London, Armen convinces Orwell to back their scheme – a multi-billion dollar investment in Gnosis. While Gnosis will be the anchor of a financial services powerhouse, unbeknown to Orwell it is merely a smokescreen to conceal a far greater purpose.
The British government begins to understand and fear the revolutionary impact Gnosis will have on the financial services industry. Enemies are everywhere – some disguised others open and vocal. Through the chaos and the intrigue, all Ryker and Armen need is a window of a few days and they will be among the richest men on the planet.
