Blood Profit$: The Lithium Conspiracy [Soft Cover ]

Blood Profit$ - the blood of the many for the profits of a few Blood Profit$ is an epic tale of an American David and Goliath confrontation. Julia Abbott, a diminutive Iraq war hero from Montana seeks justice for a crime she commits on her country's behalf. AJ Morales, an Afghanistan veteran whose father was unjustly ruined through political mudslinging seeks revenge against three corrupt US Senators. Charlie Prendergast, son of the head of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, a former college quarterback crippled in a Mafia fixed college football game, betrays his best friend with a Mafia princess. Antonia Scozzari, daughter of a merger between the Boston and New York mobs, spoiled by her father and ignored by her mother, a tabloid regular, has carte blanch to break any law with protection from her menacing family's payoffs and threats. Each has been manipulated and scarred by a collusion of highly placed politicians, international organized crime, and Wall Street money laundering. The debt ridden US taxpayer, daily cheated out of billions in tax dollars from unjustifiable Asian wars controlled by the ever growing US Government, seems indifferent to the now blatant exploitation. Yet risking the ultimate sacrifice, an unlikely trio will come together forged by a pact to restore the spirit of the America Dream. Their quest will take them from war ravaged Iraq to the protected poppy fields of Afghanistan, into the lithium mines of Bolivia, to the smoke filled backrooms of the policy making power elite of Washington D.C. then deep into the internal workings of the drug smuggling American Mafia - where all that matters is power for personal gain.
