Congratulations Nikki Lynn!! What you have to do now is reply to the email I will be sending you in a few moments within 48 hours with your full name and mailing address so that I can forward it on to the publisher who has been nice enough to sponsor this give away.

I love thrillers, as anyone who follows my blog knows-so when I was asked to review “The Fund” by H.T. Narea and realized it was about the world of international high finance (I am a bookkeeper remember) I jumped on it!!

The beginning of the book dragged a bit and I admittedly gave up trying to read all the unfamiliar type names. But then-------the action started!! I couldn’t put it down—and I really wish it hadn’t ended the way it did for the two central characters Nabibi and Kate-well maybe Mr. Narea will write a sequel!! And this would make a GREAT movie!!

From the inside front cover:

“U.S. Defense Intelligence operative Kate Molares is investigating a suspicious international money trail
Her instincts place her at the center of a plot involving a terrifying new kind of terrorism—financial terrorism—perpetrated by a suave, handsome Middle Eastern hedge fund nogul. His goal is to wreck the West by bringing the global economy to it’s knees.”


The ending will terrify you and make you wonder what is really going on in today’s volatile financial markets!! (I just saw this in todays news-Nov 17th http://www.businessweek.com/news/2011-11-15/bofa-says-regulators-may-limit-transfer-of-merrill-contracts.html scary stuff) Especially when you realize that Mr. Narea is an international investment banker and also teaches international finance at Georgetown University, as well as having in the past worked as a principle at Chase, and advised foreign countries on restructuring debt etc!! Mr. Narea has a website where you can learn more about him.

This book can be purchased at Amazon.com




Now on to the giveaway

    Kate’s mission takes her from the defense intelligence command center on the outskirts of Washington, D.C. to the oil-fueled economy of Caracas, Venezuela; from the U.N. to the site of a deadly Islamic conspiracy in the Iberian Peninsula.
