Publisher Description

Two brothers who are desperately chasing success get more than they bargained for in this suspenseful cat-and-mouse thriller of wealth, crime, and social climbing.



Two brothers. Three secret service agents. And millions for the taking. Charlie and Oliver Caruso are brothers who work at Greene and Greene, a private bank so exclusive there's a $2 million minimum to be a client. But when the door of success slams in their faces, the brothers are presented with an offer they can't refuse: $3 million in an abandoned account that can't be traced. It's the perfect victimless crime. Charlie and Oliver opt to take the money, but get much more than they bargained for. Now, with a lot of extra zeroes in their pockets and a friend found dead, the Secret Service and a female private investigator are closing in. Whose money did they take? How will they stay alive? And why is the Secret Service trying to kill them? Both Charlie and Oliver quickly realize it's not easy being The Millionaires.

"This was free of iTunes so I downloaded it and I'm really enjoying it. The thing is I have so many paper books to read that I always forget to listen to this one. I've never heard of this author before but the plot is good and it has a lot of twists and turns. Usually I have a super-short attention span so I'm psyched that I've been able to pay attention to this."

Quotes

  • “Meltzer capably takes on the theme of financial misadventures and hits on the main element that would appeal to the average Joe on the street: the idea of getting your hands on big money just when you need it...The plot zips along and nasty villains emerge from every shadow. With a likable narrator, Meltzer keeps the thrills balanced with easy humor, making The Millionaires an inviting suspense novel as well as an engaging charmer.”

    — Barnes & Noble editorial review
  • “Scott Brick...plays two unappreciated brothers employed by a ritzy private bank who plan the perfect computer theft of three million dollars. When their efforts yield 313 million instead, the brothers are pursued by a host of characters—including the US Secret Service. Brick handles this clever but complicated plot with kid gloves. He plays the brothers, whose personalities are opposites, equally well and gives Meltzer’s story line a rich and exciting reading. His performance is one in a million.”

  • “Sometimes it’s fun to root for the bad guys, especially if they’re not all that bad. Meltzer...has a knack for keeping a story moving while still throwing in plenty of insider information...Good fun.”

    " Okay, honestly, this would probably rate only 2 stars based on story alone. The main character has rather questionable ethics, which makes him hard to root for. He accidentally finds himself with the opportunity to keep a large sum of money that really isn't his - but that he so desperately needs. The book includes a nice little chase through Walt Disney World, though. As this was particularly fun for me, I had to give it 3 stars. "

    " Started out great - like a Finder novel. Then it got weird when people started getting killed. I found it difficult to get into for a while, and then finally found it's stride. It had some excitement and I was enthralled to hear the whole story despite the holes in the story, the butchering of computer operations, and reality. "

    " If you believed you could steal a huge sack of money (not literally a sack) and it wouldn't even be missed, would you do it? If the answer is yes, be sure that others(especially big tough guys with big tough guns)don't have their sights set on the same sack of money. This book is just OK. It starts out like any of those "we can get away with this" crime comedies and ends up with a bunch of folks chasing around after each other---reminiscent of the movie "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" in Disney World of all places. Give it a chance on a day you haven't anything else to do. "
