Wealthy businessman Ron Levin vanishes. A "recipe for murder" is found in his home, implicating Joe Hunt. Levin assembled elite former classmates for a lucrative but shady venture his partners claim ignorance of.

Ron Levin, a wealthy businessman, has disappeared. No body is found, but there was a list with instructions in his house - a recipe for murder. Its author Joe Hunt is the defendant. The successful young business man had formed a team of prestigious former fellow students for a risky project which should make them all rich. His partners claim they didn't know about the means.—Tom Zoerner <[email protected]>
