Wallstreet-Hasardeur William Saxon startet mit schwarzen, in Liechtenstein geparkten Millionen einen Großangriff auf die Deutsche Mark

Financial genius Bill Hitchcock, chosen to manage Saudi Arabia's vast oil profits, learns of the Western world's precarious financial balance and the Shah of Iran's grandiose scheme to control the entire Middle East

In einem fesselnden Roman, der so real ist wie die Schlagzeilen von heute, entführt Paul Erdman den Leser in die Welt der Hochfinanz, des Megageschäfts und der internationalen Politik. Im Mittelpunkt dieser atemberaubend erzählten Geschichte steht Frank Rogers, Präsident eines kalifornischen Raumfahrtunternehmens, der in letzter Minute nach Europa reist, um ein milliardenschweres Rüstungsprogramm zu sichern. Dabei sieht er sich mit einem zwanzig Millionen Dollar umfassenden Schmiergeldfonds, einem Bestechungsplan, der einen Schweizer Anwalt involviert, der auf beiden Seiten spielt, mehreren NATO-Generälen, einem deutschen Kanzler und seinem eigenen Vorstandsvorsitzenden konfrontiert. Bald ist Rogers auf der Flucht, ein Mann auf jedermanns „Gesucht“-Liste, dessen Ziel es ist, ein Land zu erreichen, aus dem er nicht ausgeliefert werden kann. Seine Flucht löst eine Kette von Ereignissen aus, die das Ende von Amerikas Stellung als bedeutende Weltmacht herbeiführen könnte.

The Crash of '79 is a book so real that its plot reads like today's headlines. The central figure is that world traveler, playboy, despot, and winter-sports enthusiast His Imperial Majesty the Shah of Iran, whose grandiose and megalomaniacal dreams, nurtured in secret and financed by oil money, engulf the lives of Erdman's characters, each of whom, unknowingly, is contributing to the event that will bring about the Crash of '79 and the demise of the industrial West. Bill Hitchcock, the hero, is a successful banker, divorced skirt-chaser, confirmed cynic and financial genius. It is Hitchcock whom the Saudi Arabians pick to manage their vast hoard of accumulated oil profits and to fire a warning shot across the bows of the Western financial community. And no sooner has Hitchcock sat down at his desk in Riyadh than he learns just how precariously balanced the Western world's financial system really is. Before long Hitchcock is wheeling and dealing at the highest levels of government, while pursuing Ursula Hartmann, beautiful Swiss daughter of one of the world's most distinguished nuclear scientists. Through her he becomes aware that the Saudi's, for all their oil and money, have a problem of their own - the Shah or Iran's ambition to control the entire Middle East and its precious oil...

When the mighty dollar falls, unscrupulous speculators will make a killing - a billion dollar killing. This is the timely story of a dollar devaluation by a former Swiss banker. It lays bare the ruthless world of international finance and the people who control it - in the White House, in the City of London, in the Soviet Union, in the Middle East and in the Mafia.

Money is the deadliest weapon of all...The evidence against him is overwhelming. The prison term he's facing will last the rest of his life. And inside a country built on secrecy, Charles Black, former Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve, has only one choice. He's about to go on the running for his freedom, and for the truth. Accused of almost half a billion dollars' worth of fraud, Charles Black knows he's innocent-but doesn't know that he's been made a pawn in the ultimate set-up...From the hushed halls of the most secretive institutions in the world-Swiss banks-to the high-risk derivatives market, from the emerald coast of Sardinia to the Alaska wilderness, one man is fighting a labyrinth of danger, money, and power-and against one, unseen enemy who has been pulling all the strings...
