Mort au comptant

Human life has been devasted by an unstoppable virus … Not a disease, but a chemical reaction that attacks iron, destroying everything that contains them and setting civilization back hundreds of years. It even affects the iron that is present in blood—enough to cause bizarre mutations and affect human fertility. Amid the resulting chaos, one man has set himself an unusual mission: to transport anything anywhere for anyone—for a price. But what he asks in return is no less mystifying than his self-appointed role… as the Transporter.
Des Hommes d’argent
Frank Carvale is arrogant, ambitious, and willing to do anything
it takes to get ahead. He’s clever, too, but maybe not as clever as he thinks. A chance meeting with a magnate
in Hong Kong could either be the
big break he needs—or the biggest
mistake of his life. A financial thriller set at the heart of the international economic crisis.
“Hedge Fund is much more creative and realistic than, say, your typical super hero punch out or action movie fight scene. It’s also, in many ways, more damaging and diabolical. Not to mention, it’s more real.” Pipeline Comics

When someone tries to break into the supposedly secret hideout where the President’s wayward daughter is being kept away from the prying pens of the press, Sisco decides to take her to a location only he knows about. Trouble is, young Julie isn’t used to being told what to do—or what not to do. When she disobeys Sisco’s instructions, whoever’s after her is able to track her down. But what do they really want Julie for? As always, Sisco pieces it together … and finds himself in a trap.
Actifs toxiques
Nothing can get in the way of Frank Carvale’s rise. At the head of one of Wall Street’s top-performing investment funds, he has so many people vying for his services that he’s forced to turn away all but the very wealthiest, with a buy-in set at twenty million. What could go wrong, especially with Frank’s mentor behind the scenes, the seemingly omniscient Bilkaer? And when a new product comes along to invest in, something called subprime mortgages, Frank’s earnings spike further still, making him one of Wall Street’s brightest stars. But for how long?

As tensions rise on either side of the Taiwan Strait, no one is safe from becoming collateral damage in the economic war being waged from the shadows by Frank’s mentor-turned-nemesis, Ergyu Bilkaer.
