Young, bright and sexy, Carla Vitale has been handpicked to run Supertech, Africa\u2019s leading independent engineering firm. Then, one Friday afternoon in Cape Town, her dream is shattered. Her boss and mentor, Nial Townley, disappears, his luxury vehicle is found in a crevice at the bottom of Chapman\u2019s Peak, and US$20 million is missing from Supertech\u2019s overseas accounts.<\/p>\n

Three months later the police are no closer to solving the riddle.<\/p>\n

With no job, no car and no phone, Carla turns to the one person she believes can help: software hacker turned day-trader, Daniel Le Fleur. But Le Fleur is maintaining a low profile in Bantry Bay and he is in no mood to ruin the serendipity.<\/p>\n
