About this ebook
They use banks to channel fraudulent products to the unsuspecting wider public. They use insider dealing to falsify share prices. They use markets to build up huge and speculative positions, spreading false rumours to achieve their ends. And they use murder to eliminate anyone who comes between them and their ambition to be the most powerful people in their world.
But they have fierce opposition, primarily in the form of Jacqui’s father, a Mafia don. He is at home in the world of “old crime” – drugs, prostitution and protection rackets. He wants to continue heading the leading Mafia family in America, but, for that, he needs the help of Charles and Jacqui.
And, when he can’t get it, their two worlds clash – financial crime against a Mafia which will stop at nothing to achieve its objectives and will destroy anyone who opposes its plans. But it is up against unlimited money and that can be as ruthless a weapon as anything the Mafia have in their arsenal.
Even the most trusted government officials are seduced by the wealth on offer. Regulators are powerless and the law is irrelevant as the bankers have the best, and the most unscrupulous, lawyers on their side.
Much of the fiction in John Gubert’s first novel, One Step To Danger, became a reality. It is just a matter of time before the same happens to The Financial Terrorist.
