There they meet Dima, a Russian who styles himself the world's number one money launderer. Dima wants, among other things, a game of tennis. Back in London, the couple is subjected to an all-night interrogation by the British Secret Service, which also needs their help. Their acquiescence will lead them on a precarious journey through Paris to a safe house in Switzerland, helpless pawns in a game of nations that reveals the unholy alliances between the Russian mafia, the City of London, the government and the competing factions of the British Secret Service"--Cover, p. 2 UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1102/2010019513-b.html UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1102/2010019513-d.html UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1204/2010019513-s.html ER -
