The Karasik Conspiracy [first edition]

The man: Billionaire Ken Karasik didn't get rich entirely by legitimate means. Born in Communist-controlled Bosnia, Karasik has devoted his life to securing freedom for the Slavs in the Balkans, at any price.The trigger: When Slobodan Milosevic kills Karasik's family and Ivan Maslac resumes ethnic cleansing in the Balkans, Karasik and his powerful Commission set in motion the deadliest terror attack the world has ever seen.The weapon: Tainted drugs unleashed in a terrifying attack on those most in need of help; thousands may die before anyone even Knows an attack has begun and there is no cure.The irony: Pharmaceutical giant PharmCorp has the same plan; with loyalty to no one, its goal is to protect billions of profit.The investigators and the traitor: If the FBI's Barry Weiner and his sexy new paramour, investigator Francine Pye, can't stop them, maybe the mysterious Judas will--if he doesn't join them first.Murder. Intrigue. Politics. Polemics: The story takes us from Washington, D.C. to New York to London, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Kumming, Guadalajara and beyond as the Karasik Commission, PharmCorp, Alexa and billionaire smuggler Faisal Ayoub seek revenge and execute their lethal plans on a global scale.
