At the moment I'm reading a great new financial thriller by Christopher Reich, The Prince of Risk. One thing Doug [Preston] and I love to do in our books is come up with scary but credible near-future scenarios--and crafting just such scenarios is a talent Reich has in spades.

Christopher Reich’s new financial thriller “The Prince of Risk” will have readers up nights worrying about a Mumbai-style siege of Manhattan. It’s just plain scary... Reich...is expert at plotting evil money games. In “The Prince of Risk,” he heightens the menace with a terrifying concept and the weapons knowledge to make it seem almost too real for the faint-hearted.

The Prince of Risk will knock your socks off. Christopher Reich seamlessly weaves the high-stakes world of hedge funds and international terrorism into a frightening, big-time thriller that pulls you into his world and rockets ahead like a runaway train. Reich knows how to deliver, and does.
