Conspiracy Of Wealth - Paperback

by Rhea Cragun (Author)

When Sergeant Marie "Chase" De Chasseur is called to the scene of HR manager Katherine's death, it looks like an open-and-shut suicide case. But the absence of a suicide note and the puzzling choice of drowning when a cabinet full of pills was available unsettle Chase. She recognizes those pills all too well; once, she nearly succumbed to their pull herself. Only her partner, Lieutenant Andrew Fontaine, knows how close she came to following the same path.

The more Chase uncovers, the stranger Katherine's death appears. Hidden beneath her corporate persona lies a tangled web of secrets-an affair, a dangerous conspiracy among HR, IT, and Finance, and cryptic references to Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations, which Katherine chillingly called a "textbook to defraud a company." Soon, Chase and Fontaine are led to Chicago, where powerful figures are determined to keep their roles in this conspiracy hidden at any cost.

In Conspiracy of Wealth, Chase confronts the dark intersection of ambition, corporate greed, and personal demons in a cerebral thriller that weaves suspense with psychological depth.
