Trevayne was a self-made millionaire by the time he was thirty. Then he went onto government, carving out a brilliant, honourable career. Fearless, intelligent and incorruptible, when he took charge of one of the biggest foundations in the United States it seemed that no one could touch him. Or so he thought.
Then his investigation into the "secret government" led him beyond the corridors of official power into a nightmare maze where Mafia leaders and "legitimate" billionaires mixed, where Congressional seats and even the Presidency itself were bought and sold. And where a man like Trevayne could be a dreaded enemy, a duped victim, or maybe, just maybe, a king.
