Synopsis

A team of freelance spies gets caught up in a web of corruption and terrorism in a struggle to control rare minerals key to today s technology. Panic strikes at the highest levels of the French government when the former president is found hanging from the rafters in his home right after a terrorist attack at the airport. Is it suicide or assassination? Freelance operative John Spencer Larivi�re, his karate-trained partner Victoire, and their computer-genius sidekick Luc must find out what he was hiding. Quickly, the investigation turns into a globe-spanning confrontation in a world of high-frequency trading where manipulation and corruption reign. Larivi�re races against the clock to find out who is pulling the strings.
