What happens when ambition becomes addiction, and success becomes a death sentence?

Blind Greed explodes off the page like a classic Greek tragedy colliding with a Jason Bourne thriller —except every shocking twist and detail actually happened.

Lawrence Hartman had it all: Columbia Law School degree, unlimited potential, and a golden ticket to the American Dream. But one taste of easy money transforms him from promising attorney into the puppet master of a global criminal empire that would make Gordon Gekko blush.

Watch Hartman's meteoric rise and catastrophic fall as he transforms from internet entrepreneur to online gambling impresario, ultimately orchestrating one of the world's most sophisticated offshore boiler room operations. From the neon-drenched excess of Las Vegas high-roller suites to Costa Rica's incomparable natural beauty, from Monaco's glittering casinos where fortunes are won and lost in a single hand, to Barcelona's ancient streets where modern crimes play out against medieval backdrops, and top it all off with clandestine Swiss banking.

This true crime saga chronicles his unbelievable adventure, from a violent kidnapping to a 36-count federal indictment that puts him on Interpol's most wanted list, living as an international fugitive with a potential LIFE sentence hanging over his head. But his runs out in unimaginable horror. Seized and dragged into El Chipote, Nicaragua's brutal torture chamber of a prison, where hope goes to die, and screams echo through the night. The stakes? Everything.

Blind Greed is The Wolf of Wall Street meets Catch Me If You Can—a pulse-pounding true story of spectacular greed, international intrigue, and ultimate justice that reads like fiction but will haunt you like the True Crime it is. This is the book you'll finish in one sitting, then immediately hand to everyone you know.

Because some stories are too incredible to be anything but true.
