PROLOGUE
RUSSELL’s hands tightened on the steering wheel as he arrived at the address he’d been given.
‘Mr Power is out of the office today,’ he’d been told when he burst into Power Mortgages half an hour earlier and demanded to see Alistair Power.
At first the receptionist had refused to tell Russell where Power might be, no doubt sensing trouble in the eyes of the distraught young man standing in front of her desk. But Russell’s ironically truthful statement that he had urgent business with her boss concerning the tragic death of a business associate had finally elicited the information he wanted. Mr Power and his wife were at the construction site of their new home in the exclusive Sydney suburb of Belleview Hill.
Russell had somehow managed a smile and the girl had jotted down the address.
He wasn’t smiling now, a bitter bile filling his mouth as he stared up at what was obviously going to be a grand mansion. Amazing what one could buy with other people’s money!
Russell wrenched the wheel of his rusty old car towards the gravel driveway and drove right up to the front of the three-storeyed building. The shell of the house was finished, the roof was on, the front steps in place. A middle-aged man in a superbly tailored business suit was standing up on the porch, a leggy blonde next to him.
Power’s trophy wife, obviously.
Russell didn’t stop to think, his emotions spilling over at the sight of the man whose greed had driven his father to despair and suicide. Hatred propelled him out of the car, his hands curling into furious fists as he charged up the steps.
‘Alistair Power!’ he called out at the same time.
Cool grey eyes raked over him; Power was not overly perturbed, it seemed, by Russell’s aggressive approach.
‘Yes. Can I help you?’
Russell could not believe the man’s lack of concern. Couldn’t he see his visitor had murder in his heart?
Russell resisted the urge to punch Power then and there. First, he wanted the creep to know who he was and why he’d come.
‘I thought you’d like to know that my father killed himself last week.’
Power’s eyebrows arched. ‘And your father is?’
‘Keith McClain.’
‘That name means nothing to me. I know no Keith McClain.’
