"Desmond Aloysius Limerick ('Dez' to all) is a retired mercenary and enthusiastic amateur musician, currently in Southern California, enjoying the sun and sitting in on the occasional gig, when the hotel he's at falls under attack. A skilled team attempts to kidnap the chief legal counsel of Triton Expeditors, a major military contractor--in fact, Petra Alexandris is the daughter of the CEO--but their meticulously-planned, seamlessly executed scheme runs into the figurative 'spanner-in-the-works': Dez himself. After foiling the attack, and with nothing better to do, Dez agrees to help Alexandris with another problem she's having: someone has embezzled more than a billion dollars from her company and left very few tracks behind"-- Provided by publisher.
