What Reviewers Are Saying:

Michael Balter’s debut novel, Chasing Money, is a fast-paced thriller that pits two partners in a start-up venture against an angry Russian killer. If Marty and Bo don’t find ten million dollars and a mysterious missing painting in the next week, it’s not just their company that will be dead. 

Gritty descriptions, simmering threats, and a wry sense of humor… Exceptionally clever and compelling. 

D. Donovan, Senior Editor, Midwest Book Review

The DaVinci Code for grownups. Tinged with noir and ringing with authenticity. Don’t miss this impressive debut novel. 

Warren. C. Easley, author of the award-winning Cal Claxton Mysteries

Chasing Money is a rollercoaster of a ride. It’s wildly inventive and incredibly entertaining. 

Charles Cutter, author of the acclaimed Burr Lafayette legal thrillers

Packed with action. A strong voice paired with authentic dialogue… Witty and engaging.”
