Synopsis

Greed always hurts. The global stock market rises to unprecedented levels. Everyone wants in, but will the bubble burst? In an exclusive Washington, D.C. hotel suite, a prominent U.S. Senator has a deviant encounter with his $8,000 per visit hooker. A day later in Chicago, a top U.S. Representative tortures a call girl to pry information from her. Carrie Linden, beautiful Pulitzer prize-winning journalist, sees a link among politicians, sex workers and the stock market, but few listen. Despite warnings, she pursues the mystery. Will Carrie halt overseas factions from corrupting Members of Congress? Can she bring forces of justice and finance to bear in time to avert global financial disaster? Wealthy attorney Michael Taylor wants his lover, Carrie, unharmed. And former FBI legend Max Foerce helps protect her. But will it be enough? Touch of Corruption is the third installment of a trilogy, following Justice Rendered and Body Parts.
