ARBITRAGE BY COLETTE KEBELL
PROLOGUE
Albert Romanov stayed in his office later than usual. No more monthly reports to the Board of Directors. Definitely not that night. Waiting for all the employees to leave the building, including his secretary, he kept looking at the clock and at the attendance register on his own computer, until he was finally sure he was the only person left inside the building.
He again read the Mortcombe dossier, consisting of various folders opened onto the modern burl wood desk, as he couldn’t grasp how things had gone from bad to worse. It had started as a game several years before. Requests to open offshore bank accounts, then the money transfer to Luxembourg, which commenced initially as a subterfuge to avoid taxes, as Mortcombe would have said, and then, later, a much larger operation of money laundering.
He hadn’t suddenly become a moralist, but if everything had a price in this world, the bill he had found himself liable for was far too hefty. There was no point in delaying further. For the past weeks, he kept accumulating substantial amounts of money in various offshore accounts.
