The Approach: A Marcus Hugo Adventure

MARCUS HUGO IS A RISING STAR AT A WALL STREET LAW FIRM.
He has his sights set on returning to his beloved Paris,
where he worked for a year before law school, and becoming
a partner in his firm’s Paris office. After a surprising setback,
Marcus travels to a friend’s wedding in Tuscany, where he is approached
by a curious figure with a mysterious employment offer.
Marcus must choose between returning to his law firm in New York,
or taking the offer; a choice which will alter his career, his life, and
ultimately, his safety.\nFrom the cafés and terraces of Paris, the parillas of Buenos Aires,
the backstreets of Krakow’s old Jewish district, the oil fields of South
Texas, to the vineyards along the banks of the Rhône River and the
Provençal coast, Marcus finds himself ingrained in the worlds of
private equity, the international energy market, and clandestine financial
investment. Marcus dives into the local culture, cuisine and
wine, but also seeks to gain influence with some of the world’s elite.
He’s forced to play the part of a particular character, but not lose
himself along the way.
