Near-new condition - NO remainder marks or price clippings - Price inside dustcover: $22.00 - 305 pages - Illustrated with photos - From Robert Lindsey, best-selling author of The Falcon and the Snowman and The Flight of the Falcon, comes a riveting true story of money, madness, and murder. To Monika Zumsteg, a modest California beauty, it seemed like a fairy tale come true. The quiet, handsome Englishman who rode in on a gleaming motorcycle, who swept her off her feet, and who politely asked her father for her hand in marriage, turned out to be one of the richest men in the world.
