Viac o knihe

Nothing is what it seems… Nicholas Maasten thinks he has made any easy score when someone pawns some rare stamps in his antique shop. He knows he can double his return. All he had to do was drive to Spain and sell the stamps to the Marques de Maerez. That morning, it appeared as simple as that. But then everything went wrong. The Marques de Maerez involves Maasten in a twenty-five-year-old web of financial intrigue that spread across Europe just before he dies, leaving Maasten holding the bag, although not literally, as the case that held the stamps goes missing. Alternately helped and hindered by the Maerez’s beautiful wife, the Marquesa, he is manoeuvred into a world of numbered bank accounts and bearer shares until he discovers that the Marquesa’s promises are as counterfeit as her husband’s passport. But by then he has met Dael, an Israeli secret agent, whose special brand of helplessness was backed up by a Schmeisser. As the intrigue around him gets ever more intense, Maasten realises that nothing is as it first appeared, not even the stamps… The Bearer Plot is a gripping thriller that will draw you into its web of secrets and lies.
