Risks and Rewards

An Englishman dies in a car bomb explosion in Holland. A professional
assassination with no chance that the killers will be caught. The Dutch
investigators cannot fi nd a motive for the killing of Simon Craig and pass the
files to the British police.

Newly promoted Chief Inspector Randall is given the task of investigating
Simon Craig?s background, family, and friends. He quickly discovers that
Craig was a conceited and ruthless womanizer living a multidimensional life
and making himself very rich at the expense of his employers.

Randall deduces that Craig was also blackmailing his bosses. The evidence
Craig was threatening them with showed the workings of The Club?an
illegal cartel. Craig had sent the proof to his solicitor in Penzance for
safekeeping. When Randall visited Susan Robson, she claimed it had
been destroyed in a fire.

Randall suspends the investigation just as Robson and a friend decide to
publish Craig?s documents and expose widespread corruption in business and
an EU department responsible for competition law compliance.
Two more people die before Robson and her friend can be stopped. No one
in authority wants the story to break.
