Blood Money--#41 finished

 This is the next in series of Jane Whitefield.  She had tried to quit helping people disappear a couple books ago but just keeps at it.  This time a very young looking young lady finds Jane and she decides to help and also has to help her companion, a money guy for all of the big mafia outfits.  The guy has an eidetic memory--or whatever it is called--and the mob used him to stash away their money in investments because he didn't have to write anything down.  His murder was faked and the mob are after the young lady since she was his housekeeper, the other guy along was killed early.  Jane gets them safe but then they decide with the 10 billion or so in hiding to give it all away to charities.  Jane gets a guy to help out and they setup fake corporations, etc to transfer money & then send out checks from them to charities.  This book written in 1999 so computers/internet still too new, lots of printing & mailing going on.  Bad guys realize Jane helping but don't know her name just have a sketch and she has to avoid these bad guys. A big scene toward end where she takes down one of the big mob bosses but no one knows about it.  Lots of mistrust in the mob bosses but looks like Jane and others got away clean.

There are 2 WL for this book so will get it posted & mailed probably pretty soon.
