Largo wakes up confused in a place he doesn't recognise. The first thing he sees when he opens his eyes is Earth... seen from space! Ten days earlier, the founder of a French aerospace company is murdered by a contract killer. So begins a new adventure for the leader of the W Group, his friends and his employees, in the world of new technologies, the space race, environmentalism... and social networks.

The last time we saw our friend Largo, he was orbiting our world in the company of one of his business rivals, having narrowly escaped death by asphyxiation. Who sabotaged their shuttle launch? Could it be the rival himself, Jarod Munskind? Or his wife Demetria, still on Earth? Perhaps the mysterious employers of a group of assassins currently plying their deadly trade around the edges of the W Group? The explosive conclusion to Largo's latest adventure.

After the dramatic events in London, Largo is on the hunt for the man who ordered the bombing that nearly killed him. But his enemy, whoever he is, has a lot of people working for him - and is always three moves ahead. And as the body count rises, Largo must also guide the Group W through the troubled waters of modern finance: high-frequency trading, anti-globalisation movements... and his own need to moralise his activities. Not an easy task among the sharks...

Wrongly accused of causing the recent stock market crash, Largo is in trouble. His attempt to find electronic proof of some external manipulation ends in disaster, and in the meantime the deeds to the entire group have been stolen. The body count keeps rising, and a suspicious guardian angel with golden hair is keeping a close eye on him. Largo will have to go to Saint Petersburg to unravel the multiple layers of this mystery and prove his innocence.
