The Snow Leopard and the Ibex, Third Edition

by Douglas W Farnell

Overview

The 2008 U.S. Financial Crisis: No loans, no credit, millions of home foreclosures and more than ten million workers laid off. This historical fiction-action novel is about one small business owner, out of 25 million, who faces extraordinary odds to save his company. Owner Daniel Prescott scrambles to arrange financing for his expanding business but is shut out from local funding providers. When he attempts to secure international sources of credit, anti-Russian terrorists hijack his plane, killing or imprisoning crew-members and binding the passengers. Confronted with this new emergency, Daniel finds his early military training reawakening and jumps into action.

As word of the hijacking gains worldwide attention, his close friend, Arianna, goes on a journey of her own, from Seattle to Washington, D.C., to high in the Swiss Alps, in search of the man she thought she knew.

About the Author

After completing his MBA at Syracuse University, Douglas W. Farnell served as Chief Financial Officer for several small businesses through the 2008 financial crisis and its multi-year aftermath. That period of upheaval inspired this work, as did his pursuit of summits which has taken him from the North Cascades to the Rockies and Alps, as well as to Europe, Asia, and Central America. Farnell makes his home in Seattle where he volunteers as an instructor in business and finance for high-school students.
