The Millionaires - Brad Meltzer (CD)
Title: Title: The Millionaires Author: Brad Meltzer Genre: Mystery and Suspense Format: CD, 5 CDs, 6 Hrs. Synopsis: Two brothers, one an executive at a bank & the other in an entry-level position, hatch a plan to steal three million dollars. But after the transaction has been completed, they quickly realize that rather than three million dollars, they have stolen 300 million dollars. Review: Library Journal If it weren't for the presence of Mickey Mouse, this would be a convoluted, confusing mystery understood only by those who follow the arcane world of high finance. Two brothers, Charlie and Oliver Caruso, work in an exclusive bank that caters mostly to the rich and crooked. Under a federal law, any money left in an account over a certain number of years and that has not been claimed either by the depositor or his/her heirs, gets sent to the General Fund of the state. One of the brothers finds such an account ready to be turned over to the eager hands in Albany, but he is tempted by the amount involved: more than $3 million. Believing that they have discovered the perfect crime, the Carusos deftly manipulate computer transfers, placing the money in a phony account. Of course, their plan is doomed from the start, and a rather exciting chase begins in New York and ends up in the tunnels of Disney World. In the unabridged version, reader Scott Brick gives the men personalities that resemble a cross between the Hardy Boys and the Golden Girls, with their alternating hair-raising escapes and snide remarks to each other. However, Brick manages to keep our interest, even through the dense financial sections. The abridged version cuts out a lot of the murky stuff and focuses on the truly exciting, well-plotted, and complex actions of the brothers, the Secret Service, a woman who claims to be the daughter of the original depositor....and, of course, Mickey. Tony Goldwyn has fun with his less-challenging reading, getting to skip over recitations of account numbers and balances. Both versions will be popular additions to library collections, with smaller libraries urged to try the abridged book.
