Description
How hard can it be to give away a fortune? That's the question for Chris Klick, legman of a team that chases down recording artists owed back royalties. Maestro Stephan Schultz is owed $190,000 that has been recovered from a team of corporate accountants who had "creatively" acquired it. The maestro, however, is elusive. He's begun an affair with a prot�g� and cleaned out his marital bank account, leaving behind a vengeful wife. So Klick goes undercover at venerable Wadham College to flush him out - and puts himself in the company of dastardly dons, missing bottles of priceless port, a lost Mozart masterpiece, and mortal danger.
