Publisher's summary

‘Help me.'

When a young woman rushes into Sam Capra's San Francisco bar and whispers these desperate words, Sam feels compelled to help. A moment later she is attacked by two killers. With Sam's aid, she manages to overpower the men, saving his life in the process before vanishing into the night.

On discovering that one of the attackers is no mere thug, but, shockingly, one of the most powerful investors in America, Sam searches for the beguiling young woman who asked for help and unearths a deadly network run by some of the most powerful and influential people in the world...

A gripping, addictive and exhilarating thriller from international bestseller Jeff Abbott, Downfall will keep you on the edge of your seat from the first page to the very last line.

Awful

Started with potential then rambled from implausible to just silly. This is the second of Abbott's books I've tried.
It seems obvious a writer should map out the plot before they start but here's another one who seems to think they can just wing it. Sorry, if I'm paying for a book I expect more effort.
The narrator was fine until he started the annoying habit of making statements sound like questions.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
