by R. a. Cramblitt (Author)
It seemed like a routine surveillance gig for private investigator Charlaine Pennington. Except that she didn't know who the client was or why she was following a chief financial officer with nothing but sterling achievements on her resume. In the course of 48 hours, a series of events unravels the perception of normality: A baffling abduction of a venture capitalist, a deadly confrontation in the lab of a 3D printing company, resignations of two star engineers, the theft of mysterious materials and prototypes, the disappearance of a disgruntled chief engineer. Charlaine and her boss at Discreet Investigations Inc. race to sort it out before a lethally dangerous force is unleashed into the underworld of international crime.
The fast-paced crime plot of Like Printing Money is the engine for an exploration of the shifting culture of Baltimore, the vagaries of greed and friendship, the double-edged sword of technology, the internecine battles within corporate culture, and the strain of relationships under pressure.
