<DIV><B><I>New York Times</I></B><B> Bestseller: The story of a down-on-his-luck desk clerk, a con man, and a fortune from the author of <I>Rich Man, Poor Man</I>.</B><BR /><BR /> Pilot Douglas Grimes&rsquo;s best days are long behind him. Grounded due to a medical condition, Grimes has resigned himself to working nights at a seedy hotel. But his fortune flips when he discovers a guest dead from a heart attack and, next to him, a tube jammed with a fortune in cold hard cash. Grimes grabs the money and, with it, the chance to remake his life.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> Then, in Europe, he meets Miles Fabian, an elegant and erudite con man with a flair for extravagance. Fabian recruits Grimes for his latest ploy: robbing members of the idle rich. But when the fun ends and his bad behavior catches up with him, things will get a lot more dangerous in this clever thriller from the multimillion-selling legend who brought us <I>The Young Lions</I> and countless other bestsellers.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> Known for both his literary talent&mdash;with two O. Henry Awards to his name&mdash;and for his ability to tell a propulsive, full-steam-ahead story, Shaw is perfect for those who enjoy the thrillers of Marcus Sakey or Lawrence Sanders.<BR /> &#160;<BR /><I>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Irwin Shaw including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author&rsquo;s estate.</I><BR /> &#160;</DIV>
