When the road to riches becomes the road to ruin.

Panama a tropical paradise with an anything-goes attitude. Bring your wish list. It’s a place to start. Or to start over. Where the best of intentions are dazzled by the glitter of easy money. Steven McKay chases the quick bucks in offshore finance, playing fast and loose with his scruples until he discovers he’s merely one cog in a vast Ponzi scheme. Even as his paranoid boss puts the screws to everyone inside the conspiracy, McKay races to save his clients-and his skin-before the rotten machine grinds to a halt under the weight of sleaze, greed, and criminal investigations. He realizes too late that his dream for wealth and fortune was nothing but Good Money Gone.

“Sex, money, and creeps-Good Money Gone is an unforgettable journey through the soft underbelly of a Ponzi scheme. Kilborn and Acevedo are a great tag team. Their crisp prose and deft mix of fact and fiction kept me turning the pages all night long.”
Norb Vonnegut, author of The Trust, The Gods of Greenwich, and Top Producer.

“Good Money Gone is a fantastically fun read filled with tawdry sex, greed, back-stabbing and, most importantly--MONEY! Loaded with great characters, tension that grows with every turn of the page and more twists and turns than a roller coaster on a ski slope, Richard Kilborn has crafted one terrific financial thriller. Make a smart investment--read Good Money Gone!”
Jeff Shelby, author of Thread of Hope and the Noah Braddock mystery series.

“A bawdy, rollicking fast paced financial thriller Good Money Gone reads like The Firm meets The Wolf of Wall Street. The hero, Steven McKay, an American naif, gets lucky in his first job out of college working for an investment fund in Panama. Or does he? The fund is really an offshore tax shelter and his boss, Mr. Henderson, who is one part Gordon Gekko, one part James Bond villain, locks McKay in for one hell of a roller coaster ride. From the high brass polish of the posh Union Club to the steamy underside of Banana Republic brothels, fast money, faster women, & shady deals make this story spin with the ticking immediacy and intensity of a roulette wheel. The whole house of cards is coming down, but the magic is in how McKay navigates his way through the financial labyrinth and achieves redemption on the other side.”
Cort McMeel, author of Short and editor of Murdaland.

Good Money Gone edition by Richard Kilborn Mario Acevedo Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks

If you're looking to invest your reading time for a rewarding return, you'd do well to put Good Money Gone on your "buy" list.

Financial thrillers aren't normally my cup of tea, having spent plenty of years seeing the darker aspects of business from the inside, but when a book co-written by a friend popped up on Facebook, I figured I'd give it a read. Turns out I liked it.

Mario Acevedo's fantasy world is full of vampires and other creepy characters, so it wasn't that much of a reach for him to write about a different type of blood-sucker, Nicholas Henderson, an expatriate flimflammer who would make Charles Ponzi green with envy.

Steven McKay arrives in Panama with the ink barely dry on his degree and full of energy and ambition. It doesn't take long for him to be seduced by the reptilian charm of his new boss, founder of the eponymous Henderson Organisation, an offshore haven for money that high rollers want to protect from the clutches of the IRS and angry spouses. Money pours into the young financier's bank account in dizzying amounts and he's living la vida loca until one day the facade begins to crumble.

Suddenly, trusting customers and family members are faced with ruin and Steven finds himself desperately trying to make amends and recover his self-respect in spite of being on the brink of bankruptcy himself.

As the story winds its way through the easy money, easy morals, and easy women that are part and parcel of operating the offshore haven, readers get a look at the inside of the business and how once-good people are seduced by its glamour. There are plenty of shady characters, too, from Henderson himself to his outside associates and the goons who protect them, all evocatively set in the tropical paradise of Panama.

Of course it soon becomes Paradise Lost for McKay and those around him. His struggle for redemption and justice makes for a riveting morality play that keeps the pages turning.

Good Money Gone edition by Richard Kilborn Mario Acevedo Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews


This is co-written by one of my favorite writers, Mario Acevedo, who writes the Felix Gomez vampire novels. It's a blast! Great summer reading, lots of action.
Big money fascinates me, and these authors seem to know what they're talking about. The Panama setting adds an exotic touch. The fast-paced world of money, sex, booze and debauchery is depicted in such realistic detail you almost feel slimy reading it. It's a story of enticement, entitlement and redemption, where the payoff is only the beginning.
I really enjoyed this book. It was fast moving and the plot and characters were believable. Hope to see more from this author in the future.
Good Money Gone is a fascinating look at a world of big money, unbridled lust, glamorous excess and unfathomable greed. The authors take the readers on a wild ride with vivid writing, compelling characters and complex financial scheming. Once I started this, I couldn't put it down. If you're looking for a fast-paced read that will take you out of the everyday, this is it!
The author uses fictional characters and story to illustrate how some off-shore schemes work. Story and character development is well done. The end is predictable, but I enjoyed the ride there.
Having read Acevedo's Felix Gomez vampire PI novels, I knew what I was going to get ... a fast-paced, no-nonsense story, told with economy and grit. This is a slight departure only in the subject matter. Instead of vampires, werewolves and nymphos, we get a giant Ponzi scheme evidently based on a true story which Acevedo was hired to co-write with one of the people involved.

This is a fascinating character study on greed and having it all, well-written and a page turner. Finished it in 3 sittings.
My favorite type of stories are ones that keep me entertained and make me think without preaching to me or slamming me over the head with the author's agenda. This book brought a compelling and timely story that flirts with the whole idea of finance and fraud but also presents several moral dilemmas. The good guys don't always wear white hats and the bad guys don't always wear black hats. It is difficult to tell who ARE the good guys many times and everyone seems to have a justification for the choices they make--which makes it just like real life. It's a book that keeps you entertained from the beginning and gets you thinking which, to me, is about all you can ask for.
If you're looking to invest your reading time for a rewarding return, you'd do well to put Good Money Gone on your "buy" list.
