Rudiger on the Streets
Rudiger on the Streets is a 24,000 word novella - about 71 pages - RUDIGER STORY #4. Also available as part of the collection Rudiger Stories at a reduced price.
Fugitive financier John Rudiger has finally settled into a peaceful existence in Antigua. No more Wall Street Journal articles revisiting his financial scandal. No more attempts by U.S. Attorney Charlie Holden to extradite him. No more hassles from the local police about his alias. But after his repose is shattered when his housekeeper gets scammed out of her life savings by two cons, Rudiger gets mad and wants to get even. His plans to do just that take him into the belly of Antigua's underworld, where he enlists the help of a ghetto crime boss. There, he's forced to rely on the dirty tricks he learned in his youth on the mean streets of New York's Hell's Kitchen. And once he plunges into this world of double-dealers, swindlers and murderers, he realizes there's no turning back.

About the author
David Lender
17 books60 followersEx-Wall Street Insider and Pitbull Poppi. I’m a pull-no-punches thriller author of vigilantly-researched espionage and white collar crime. Found at DLenderAuthor.com, my series and standalone novels are inspired by more than 25 years on Wall Street. Now I use my insider’s knowledge of the characters and intrigues that inhabit that sharp-elbowed world to create stories of corporate power brokers, CEO bullies, megalomaniacs and con artists.
I write about financial fraudsters, male and female spies and assassins, and the gritty underdogs that take them on. I also Tweet and blog from northeastern Pennsylvania with my rescue pitbull, Styles.

Our financial fugitive is now well set in Antigua but gets drawn into dealing with two con artists who have scammed his housekeeper. Not the most credible tale.

Rudiger on the streets
A short one but good with the usual cast of characters. Good explanation and use of the con man's best 2 drop tricks and a straightforward ending that promises more if you want.

Good book. Quick, fast story about a rich street wise businessman who pulls a con on a set of con artists to get his housekeepers money back.
Worth the time.
