About this eBook
Carl Strassberger has exchanged the fortune of his family's prestigious banking empire for a normal life. But Larry Lucas, heir to the Strassberger business, has just disappeared, and Carl must cast aside the peaceful existence he has secured to embark on a desperate life-and-death search.
Carl Strassberger's comfortable life in the south of France is shattered when his brother-in-law Larry Lucas, the heir to the family banking business, suddenly vanishes after landing a multimillion-dollar deal.
Investigating Larry's disappearance, Carl uncovers a sinister travel company that helps wealthy, unhappy clients disappear to a new life. But Carl fears Larry is dead-or worse.
Vanishing Point is a story of flight and pursuit, of financial intrigue, of old and menacing secrets unearthed and of normal lives thrown suddenly into violent confusion.
'Morris West has the enviable ability to thrust readers into a compelling story with very few wasted words.' Amazon review
'Morris West is a remarkably consistent exponent of a dying art-the production of literate and intelligent bestsellers.' The Sunday Times
