Twin murders, a fatal auto accident, a deadly disease, a hostile takeover, an innocent man on the death row – firebrand District Attorney Nolan McClain has his hands full trying to find out what connects them all.
Preston Monroe, the iconic CEO of BioGene Pharmaceuticals, is on the cusp of global eminence with his sole ownership of a remission drug for Immoderma, a fast spreading and a fatal disease. However, a hot start-up threatens to upend his grand plans when they apply their flagship product, Ciplocin, for FDA approval as a cure to eradicate the disease. To keep his rabid ambition alive, Preston has to keep the disease alive. So he colludes with a competing CEO and an influential Senator Jack Moyer to secure FDA disapproval of Ciplocin.
However, Preston’s troubles only worsen when District Attorney Nolan McClain links Senator Moyer to twin murders in a crime of passion. Senator Moyer, to avoid a career ending indictment, gets Nolan assassinated and implicates Preston.
When a flamboyant new prosecutor entrusted with Nolan’s murder investigation pits Senator Moyer and Preston Monroe against each other, will their collective power and influence help them stay above the law? Or will mutual mistrust spell their ultimate doom?
Unflinching loyalties, profound characters, corporate subterfuge and catchy insights make A DEAL IN THE SHADOWS a refreshing addition to the thriller market. A DEAL IN THE SHADOWS follows a high-class crime and betrayal that challenges the reader’s perceptions and makes them question the very institutions designed to protect them.
