After years of study and hard work, the strikingly beautiful Carmen Minelli finally achieves her dream of attaining a senior position with the most respected stockbroker in the land—J.D. Ford & Co.

Her first assignment with J.D. Ford & Co. does not stack up, but her concerns are met with resistance by the owners and senior executives of the firm. When her predecessor vanishes in the high country, her suspicions of her venerable employer grow.

As she delves deeper into the assignment she has an uncomfortable feeling that she is being manipulated into signing off on something that she shouldn’t. But why? Who is pulling the strings? What do they hope to achieve?
