Book Description by Author:

Stockbroker, Francis Peter Sainsbury’s Ponzi Scheme left a ten billion dollar hole. And his rich clients were left holding an empty bag while he ran out of town with the loot full and a million dollars on his head. That was seven years ago. Now bounty hunter Dave Bonner is on his trail; his only clue, a photograph.

About the Author:

Born in Manchester, I left England many years ago to get about and see the world. It was the best move I ever made. After lots of traveling and adventure in Africa, where I worked in many jobs to serve my passion for travel such as English teacher, bar tender, taxi driver, construction worker in the Transvaal goldmines and the copper mines of Zambia.

Eventually, I moved to Canada where I still live part of the time. I made my home in Quebec, living in Montreal for many years before moving north into the Laurentian Mountains where I built a log home in the town of Ste. Adele.

I'm now living in Chiang Mai, Thailand and like it a lot. In the winter of 2012, I published my first novel on Amazon: The Iran Deception. Last November I published Down And Out In The Big Mango a collection of Thai short stories. I am presently working on a second novel: A Bangkok Interlude.
