The Cold Broker

Emilia Voss is twenty-nine and very good with other people's money. She has just been handed the Ferran account, which her firm regards as a promotion and the DEA regards as probable cause. Tomás Ferran runs a cigar empire that is worth eleven figures and responsible for the death of exactly nine men, six of them his rivals'. He has not smiled in public in nine years. He has never lost an account. When a rival family firebombs Emilia's apartment, Tomás offers her the arrangement her firm has been preparing for months. Thirty days. A courthouse wedding. A payoff that clears her mother's bills and the rest of her life. It is a contract. They both signed it. Neither intended to keep it. Then his brother is taken, and the only person in the family who can find him is the woman the family hired to audit them. Emilia has been finding everything for months.
