"a hot political-financial thriller" - Newsday
"thrilling fast-paced tale!" - Online Review of Books
Welcome to the world of high finance and ultimate political power, where the stakes are higher than the body count. That’s the simmering background of The Trail, a dazzling debut thriller by former international investment banker, Natalia Prentice. From inside a lifestyle of incredible wealth and political influence, The Trail follows Sharon Thomas, a young financial journalist who leaves Wall Street to become an investigative reporter. She soon learns that she can’t escape her past, especially when she discovers that what she knows could strip the world’s wealthiest people of their riches. Even worse, when she discovers a mysterious document called The Trail, hidden in the computer systems of Washington, the body count rises and her own life is suddenly on the line. Only one person knows the true meaning of this deadly document, and that person is determined to keep it a secret!
Working at the world’s most powerful banks, a person learns about the true price of wealth. Armed with her knowledge, Prentice pulls no punches, lending a stunning authenticity to the novel. Spanning Wall Street, Washington D.C. and Belize, The Trail reveals a world where nothing is as it seems, and where death, dollars, and danger fluctuate faster than the Dow.
Brilliantly written and full of hairpin twists and turns, The Trail is a thinking person’s thriller, tingling the spine while posing provocative questions about greed, power, and integrity. |
