| Translation by MS de Mora Charles. The saga of the adventurers continues in this great novel. Jonas Cord, in his fifties and son of the late Jonas Cord I, is at the peak of his career as a businessman. He is undoubtedly a worthy heir to his father: tough, unscrupulous and a womanizer. The empire that his father started by manufacturing explosives now encompasses many other activities. The senate decides to investigate certain irregularities in Cord's companies, which forces him to disappear for a while, hiding in Las Vegas. From there he controls his empire, intervenes in casino businesses and begins a relationship with Angie, his secretary. His wife, with whom he has a daughter, Jo-Ann, separates from him. Wanting to extend his activities to Cuba, he requests the help of Sonia, niece of the dictator Batista, who announces the existence of his twenty-six-year-old son, the result of a former love relationship, a lawyer and rival of his father in all areas. Jonas, however, manages to involve him in his intrigues. But, at the same time as his business dealings, the number of enemies ready to put an end to his power and his life also grows. |
