(May 1, 2014) When the safety and soul of the United States are threatened, three once-naive Americans risk the ultimate sacrifice to uncover and expose a global conspiracy to defraud the nation of trillions of dollars in an operation funded by Washington war profiteering and illegal drug sales. The despicable activities are sanctioned by the CIA, controlled by Mafia and laundered by Wall Street traders.
That’s the plot of “Blood Profit$: The Lithium Conspiracy,” a novel written by Denton resident James N. Patrick Sr. and Chicago-area resident J. Victor Tomaszek. The novel, which arrived in print April 25 and is available now in e-book form, takes readers through a maze of political corruption and intrigue at the highest levels of government.
“Blood Profit$: The Lithium Conspiracy” (Roundfire Books/ISBN 978-1-78279-483-7/$18.95 paperback/$7.99 e-book) is the first book of a trilogy by first-time author Patrick and five-time novelist Tomaszek. The next book, “Blood Profit$: The Price of Indifference,” is scheduled for release in late 2014 or early 2015.
“We started writing this book via email several years ago, coming at the story from vastly different political perspectives and life experiences,” said Patrick, who met Tomaszek through a shared love of alpacas. “The main characters, Generation Xers, are like many people the readers probably know, and they face ethical and moral decisions throughout the story.”
“Blood Profit$: The Lithium Conspiracy” explores how far the United States could fall as greed, entitlements and corruption all gain greater acceptance.
“Blood Profit$: The Lithium Conspiracy” is available at Roundfire-Books.com and other major book sellers, including Amazon.com.
