A Consuming Rage / Christopher Chesney Books (ePub)

Qualified as a chartered accountant, Chris joined the European leasing subsidiary of Security Pacific Corporation, the Californian banking giant, in 1975. By 1987, Chris had become its Executive Vice President, also spending two years in Paris as President Director-General of its French bank subsidiary.

Having transferred to Bank of Boston, Chris worked in senior positions in London, Istanbul and Dublin before retiring in early 2000 and returning to the UK. There, Chris set up his own consultancy company. Doing so, Chris was introduced to an Italian entrepreneur who wished to expand his activities across Europe. However, this Italian businessman had been acting fraudulently for some while and, ultimately, was arrested by the Italian Guardia di Finanza early in 2007.

This Italian businessman claimed that the fraudulent acts totalling EUR67 million had been masterminded by Chris and the Guardia di Finanza obtained a European Arrest Warrant in early 2007. Chris was arrested in the UK in 2008 and, although this EAW was dismissed by the Court in London, when Chris visited Paris in mid-2009 he was arrested by the French Police. Chris spent the next 5 months in various French and Italian prisons before he was released back to the UK.

Once home, less than impressed with Italian justice, Chris wrote this, his first book, "A Consuming Rage" on these experiences.
