Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: The New York Times Sunday Magazine piece famously opened: âShe has pouting lips and high round breasts. Thousands of men have dreamt of her. Hundreds have chased after her. Two have died in pursuit. Her name is Sirena, she weighs 193 pounds, and she vanished in 1959. Without a trace.â
Barrett Collegeâs legendary Greco-Roman sculptureâs fate was still a hot topic in 1970 when four roommates began their freshman year at the New England school. Theyâve gone their separate ways for years. But as the 1994 commencement approaches, they are about to reunite to meet a challenge thrown down by a Class of â59 hedge-fund billionaire. He has pledged a $25 million endowment plus a $3 million purse to her finder(s) if Sirena is restored to Barrett by June 17th, the date of his 35th reunion, the collegeâs sesquicentennial celebrationâand our foursomeâs 20th class reunion.
Although they are not alone in their pursuitâgroups of alumni, including a pair of aggressive and highly-financed classmates, are running down leads across the worldâSt. Louis lawyer Lou Solomon and his crew come upon an obscure but intriguing clue. It leads them to Chicago where a young lawyer called Rachel Gold may hold key information. As the men race to crack the Sirena puzzle, their quest will transform their lives in unexpected ways.
