Behind closed doors, the world’s most powerful men make decisions that turn the tides of history. They go to extraordinary lengths to get what they want, even if that means betraying one of their own. Now, a secret half a century old has come back to haunt Max Harding,
who’s life is torn to pieces as he learns he is not at all who he thought he was. Backed by the resources of the CIA, he sets out to fi nd the truth about what happened to his family. His investigation leads to some of the twentieth century’s most notorious fi gures, from Heinrich Himmler to Howard Hughes, and there’s no telling how deep the roots of conspiracy go. Despite their power, they soon find out that no amount of money can protect them from a man set on vengeance.
Man on the Run: Volume I — The Hildebrandt Dossier sets the groundwork of history and characters that reverberate throughout the rest of the series. Each volume can be read on its own; together, they tell the saga of love, ambition, fate, and luck as it weaves between generations and characters.

“This way.”
“Here?”
“No. There.”
“All the way down?”
“All the way down.” She said it with a smile as she watched yet another man sweat with excitement at his first time. He looked at her with wild eyes. His hair was disheveled and suit crumpled. She could see that he was a powerful man, whatever it was he did, but here, she was in charge. She had seen even the most powerful men shake and cry with uncontrolled joy.
He paused before doing what she knew he had to do, but instead did something unexpected. He closed his eyes, slowed his breathing, and fixed his suit. He used his hands to flatten his hair, probably blown wild by his drive over, and straightened his tie. “I’m sorry but I can’t think straight. You need to show me.” He took her hand and started walking in the direction she had pointed.
She felt his warm hand envelop hers. The touch was electric and short circuited any remonstrance. It was against hospital policy for her to leave her post. It was also against policy for her to have such inappropriate contact with the public, but the power of his personality overwhelmed her and she found herself quickening her step to stay ahead of him. There was no reason for him to be holding her hand and, in any other circumstance, she would have released herself immediately. The touch was completely innocent, solely intent on getting him to where he needed to be. She was a tool for him, like the switch that turns on a light. She was there to bring him to his newborn son.
