Описание:

Murder disrupts a billion-dollar oil deal STRIKE PRICE is a story about a business deal turned deadly, concluding with a plot to destroy a hidden, crucial US oil center and bring the US into confrontation with another global power. To stop the plot and save lives, up-by-the-bootstraps Lynn Dayton must trust a Cherokee elder who carries a corrosive secret. Exclusively in the print edition, STRIKE PRICE features authentic Cherokee syllabary text in clues that tie fascinating Native American history to global high-stakes drama today. If youre looking for big business wheeling-and dealing, international intrigue, murder, mayhem and high-geared action, youve come to the right place. Toss in a charming and nervy protagonist like Lynn Dayton and L.A. Starks STRIKE PRICE is right on the money. Well-written, well-plotted and well worth a readers time... Carlton Stowers - - - two-time Edgar winner STRIKE PRICE takes the reader from Oklahoma Indian reservations to the streets of Florence, in an imaginative and well informed fusion of oil refining economics, Native American politics, and the potential for lethal mayhem in the global energy market. Michael Ennis - - - author of New York Times bestseller, The Malice of Fortune Plan on not sleeping tonight. James Gary Vineyard - - - author of The Grave On Peckerwood Hill Fast-paced and convincingly choreographed, Starks novel presents a spot-on depiction of todays oil business that grips and scares and offers the reader plenty to think about. Richard Holcroft - - - author of Patriots Blood Summary: When several people involved in bidding for an oil refinery are murdered, the situation becomes far more than a billion-dollar business deal. A self-made woman in the oil industry, Lynn Dayton fights to save lives when escalating attacks reveal a hired assassins plan to disrupt oil trade, wreck world economies, and draw another global power into dangerous confrontation with the United States. Are the killers rogue civil servants challenging the Cherokees financial independence, Sansei operatives again wreaking violence, or sinister investors swapping the bidding war for a real one? Lynn Dayton and Cherokee tribal executive Jesse Drum must learn to trust each other so they can find and stop the killers. Can sobering up really be fatal? How have so many of the deaths been made to appear accidental? Whos creating weapons with modern poisons and ancient Cherokee arts? Author: L. A.
