false <![CDATA[The Millionaires]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171059482m/85319.jpg 85319 22 What would you steal if you couldn't get caught? That's the tag line of Brad Meltzer's new thriller, which pits an ambitious young money manager against a corporate villain, whose intricate financial shenanigans accidentally put a huge chunk of dough right in front of a man who desperately needs it. Of course Oliver Caruso's conscience troubles him, but that doesn't keep him from letting his somewhat looser and less ethical brother convince him this is too good an opportunity to pass up. Meltzer's in interesting territory here, but in order to buy his premise, you have to believe that it's OK to steal if you have a good enough reason. This makes his protagonist, who narrates the novel, hard to root for and less than sympathetic. Despite this hollow ring, the book is nicely plotted and should please the author's enthusiastic fan club. <I>--Jane Adams</I> 2705389 1 11 2002 The Millionaires total:673|5:99|4:225|3:278|2:60|1:11| 673 2360 888 62 2 1 false false Thu Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Mon Nov 26 12:35:53 -0800 2007 Mon Nov 26 12:49:34 -0800 2007 more...]]> 4 1 false false Mon Aug 04 19:16:09 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 04 19:20:37 -0700 2008
