I came across The Trade by Karen Taylor free on Kindle today. Looks like a cracking crime thriller - good for David Baldacci fans.
The Eighties are over.
The champagne has gone flat.
And the ‘greed is good’ culture is dead.
Or is it?
When investigative journalist Frances Alexander is mugged in Mayfair, she finds herself recuperating at the swanky river-side apartment of James Holland, a very handsome - and very wealthy - City trader.
At the same time, riots at an underground mine 9000 miles away in Papua New Guinea leave hundreds of people dead and chromium prices rocketing.
Some one is about to make a killing in the markets.
And Frances thinks she knows who.
But when the Evening Herald send her to investigate the riots, Frances realises she is a lot closer to dying than she cares to think.
And she has to decide whether she is willing to trade her life to uncover the truth.
From the cocktail parties of Park Lane, to grass-skirted orgies of Kiriwena Island to the rolling beauty of the Scottish Highlands, 'The Trade' is a fast-paced thriller ripped straight from the headlines. It is perfect for fans of Robert Harris and David Baldacci.
'A roller-coaster of a read that will grip you until the last page.' - Tom Kasey, best-selling author of 'Trade-Off'.
