Avarice and hatred between the partners of a biotech firm lead to murder - and to a possible pandemic of Creutzfeldt-Jacobs disease in this riveting thriller that begins in a placid North American suburb and ends on the high seas on the morning of 9/11. Ex-CIA, Mossad and SAS men are pitted against Latin American stringers for Al-Qaeda in a race against time, when it becomes clear that an innocuous incident involving surgical glue derived from cow blood has led to the generation of a weapon of mass destruction. Fatal Greed is about an underground world that most of us will never know, a world of easily-bought passports and citizenships of convenience, secret offshore banking with coded accounts, anonymous bearer share certificates, and unparalleled moral turpitude. When its surface ruptures, it threatens to engulf civil society like a tidal wave.
