John Ingram is the ambitious head of the Fortune 500 company Ingram Energy. When he enters the race to win a multi-billion-dollar contract for a new oil refinery in southern India, Ingram wagers not only his company but his personal wealth. His greatest competitor is Akito, the wily president of the Narumi Corporation, a Japanese energy conglomerate controlled by Yakuza, the Japanese underworld organization. Akito will do anything to destroy his rival, so when Ingram boards a plane for India, planning to petition for the contract in person, his decision sets off a chain reaction of international proportions. A terrorist organization intent on global oil control threatens to shoot down the plane, beginning a fast-paced narrative that will propel readers from the oil capitals of the world to the seedy alleyways of Tokyo to the heart of London. Based on current international tensions, Quick Draw is a suspenseful thriller that will keep readers spellbound until the very last page.
