Business as Usual John R. Childress

When Jack Christian, a high-flying management consultant, gets a call from a reclusive Russian billionaire, he thinks he has struck gold. But Jack is about to discover this is not business as usual. As he delves into the assignment, he is drawn into a world of bluff and double-bluff, and strike and counter-strike, in which he will need all his wits to survive. Drugs lords are moving aggressively into new territories, terrifying local communities. The pharmaceuticals industry is making massive profits - but scared they might suddenly collapse. Law enforcement and intelligence agencies are helpless in stemming the flow of illegal drugs. And when the drug lords link up with Big Pharma, it's definitely not Business As Usual. What links them? And how is his Wall Street tycoon half-brother involved? Jack is about to find out. But it may cost him his life. Business As Usual is a brilliantly topical thriller combing global politics, the narcotics trade, and the giants of the drugs industry.
