About to Find Out

Frederic Vimont was a self-made billionaire, or so it seemed until his death reveals the extent of his genius and duplicity.

Probate researcher Jean-Pierre Couran is sent by his Paris law firm to find and secure the assets.

Sweeping from Paris, through Normandy, Brittany, The Vendee, Bordeaux and Cote D’Azur his investigations reveal that Vimont had as many enemies as he had secrets and lovers. There are hints that Vimont had a special power that kept his friends on a leash and his enemies at bay.

Couran realises that he isn't alone digging into Vimont’s hidden past and enormous wealth and that he’s being manipulated while also being tracked and hunted. Spirals of deceit lead to trust becoming a de-based commodity.

Fast-paced action, tense encounters, victories and defeats surround Couran as he untangles secrets, finds the hidden assets and reveals Vimont’s special power.

All this is played out against Couran’s own struggles with his chaotic private life.
