- Summary
- When John Putnam Thatcher, senior vice-president of the Sloan, one of the world's largest banks, is to be seen carrying a suitcase packed with $1.5 million in small bills from his Zurich hotel to a Swiss bank, we can be sure that something very sensational is happening. He is in fact carrying the ransom for an important American executive, who has been kidnapped by, apparently, Arab terrorists. But are the terrorists quite what they appear to be? And why is there so long a delay about releasing Wylie, after the ransom has been paid? And why, when he is finally released, is he so quickly murdered?
