Desciption
The Reason was honored as a Finalist in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards' First Novel Category for 2016 Illicit profits were part of Zane Donovan's work at a financial firm. Suddenly the stakes change when his family is violently abducted. Following a trail that was never meant to be uncovered, he realizes that the Great Recession of 2008 granted the government control that America's founding fathers never meant for it to have. By printing money with Quantitative Easing, the Federal Reserve is doing something no criminal has ever accomplished--and the catastrophic economic implications are worth killing over. Zane's race to save his family leads him to a corrupt Federal Reserve Chairman with a sinister past, a beautiful computer espionage expert, and even a God-fearing, gun-toting grandma. As Zane confronts his tormentors, his training in mixed martial arts allows him to finally understand that mom was wrong--sometimes violence does have a purpose. In this first book of a series, Zane must decide between exposing the truth or preserving the financial strength of the world. However, only Zane knows the real truth and why it can't be revealed. The Federal Reserve isn't just about money. While it also involves domination and control, it all comes back to one thing. The Reason.
Review
With heroes who are questionable, desperate and tainted, who fooling who? Strings are being pulled in all directions, who are the puppets and who are the puppet masters in this dark thriller where the goal is power, control and the grand prize is the almighty dollar? Is the Federal Reserve behind this evil plot for elicit gains or are they using one man’s knowledge and the threat of losing his family to dig deep, very deep into a money-making scheme that is feeding off the innocent like a vampire hot on the trail for blood? Three individuals, a financial genius, a former black ops soldier with a penchant for martial arts violence and an expert computer hacker do a deadly balancing act as the hacker plays both sides of the fence for the hunted and the hunter. You like grit? You like true suspense and a thriller that questions that clandestine government operations we know go on behind closed doors? It’s all here, in a twisted and diabolical plot from Quentin Brent’s The Reason.Mr. Brent feeds just enough twisted information to keep the reader guessing and desperate for more as he weaves an intriguing plot with slightly dirty characters into one non-stop thrill ride! Raw, dark and at times a little eerie, if suspense over the quest for the almighty power of the dollar is your genre…this is a must read.I received this copy from Quentin Brent in exchange for my honest review.Publisher: Beaver's Pond PressPublication Date: October 20, 2015Genre: Mystery | ThrillerPrint Length: 481 pagesAvailable from: Amazon | Barnes & NobleFor Reviews & More: http://tometender.blogspot.com
