The Capital Underground

Twenty years after his disappearance into the U.S. Federal Witness Protection Program, Aristotle Hirsch is summoned - coerced might be a better word - by a Presidential Task Force to emerge from his covert and safe status. Ari's already complicated world is suddenly turned upside down when he is faced with making a painful choice: participate in a monumental case involving national security or risk his very own freedom. It would include a whirlwind investigation and international trial that might lead to the discovery of a potentially gigantic cache of riches in one of the world's most secret and sophisticated tax havens. His choice could also shed more light on the deception and casualties of America's forty-year War on Drugs, enormous government avarice, and the assault on the nation's most precious legal documents - the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Ari knows his life might come to an end, similar to the way it might have been extinguished two decades prior in a thunderous explosion. Innate intelligence, knowledge of underground activities, and personal and professional experiences would be the factors in helping him make the most conflicted decision he would ever face. The stories in this book are based on true events. And they're unprecedented. They mark the first time these kinds of chronicles are revealed by a skillful and unique former Internal Revenue Service Special Agent, attorney and CPA. The episodes stretch from the Florida Keys to the Black Hills of South Dakota; from the Principality of Liechtenstein to the Golden Triangle of Southeast Asia; from the halls of justice to the grounds of executive power in Washington, DC. And they involve major policing and judicial agencies, assassins, and even royalty. The Capital Underground is a glimpse of the chilling life of Ari Hirsch, who at seventy-one remains incognito somewhere in America.
