Norbert Briscoe, financial wizard, friend of presidents, and toast of the jet set, is alive and well and living in exile in Costa Rica. The proceeds of his swindles, thefts, and international money manipulation made him a wanted man in the U.S. But now he is putting together his biggest deal – one that will guarantee his own safety, grant him a complete pardon, and allow him to retain his huge fortune. He’s going to buy the Panama Canal! Condition: some shelf wear, otherwise in unread condition.
