Mergers, Acquisitions and Corporate Finance are businesses that constantly challenge the mettle and moral fortitude of those who earn their keep with this dark Art.
I should know, I was one of its practitioners for over three decades.
But then, the world of business is widely peopled by men of questionable morality. Why else did we have to witness the Ponzi scheme of a Madoff or the highly questionable practices of the top executives of Wall Street's most prestigious bankers?
Chicanery in business appalls me so I wrote a book about it and called it FATAL GREED (because greed can, indeed, be fatal at times).
THE BOOK HAS JUST APPEARED IN DIGITAL FORM.
My story is about two men who manufacture surgical glue from bovine blood, and, by mistake, infect a batch with human Mad Cow Disease.
The infected glue gets shipped out to hospitals everywhere and people start dying from it.
When the two realize what they have done they can't agree on what to do next.
They fight.
The bad guy kills the good guy and runs away with the money they had made selling the glue.
Their company goes bankrupt. The glue becomes an orphan and an excellent candidate for being turned into a Weapon of Mass Destruction.
TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS TO THE GLUE AND THE BAD GUY READ FATAL GREED. IT'S AN ENTIRELY BELIEVABLE AND TOPICAL STORY.
