The Piranhas

Sinopse

The "piranhas" are not only the dangerous fish that lurk under the calm surface of the Amazon River-- they are also the men and women whose greed, immorality and amorality feed on the fabric of society; not only those who run the illegal machinations of the Mafia and the worldwide drug trade that controls the shadow governments of many countries, but also those who live in the more "respectable" world of finance, banking, and Wall Street, and who fleece the innocent of their savings in order to gobble up big businesses and whole industries.--WorldCat From sensational New York Times bestselling author Harold Robbins comes his toughest and most compelling novel in years--a dazzling exploration of cold ambition and unrestrained lust. From the ruthless dealings of global drug lords to the corporate savagery of Wall Street's hustlers, the Piranhas are those hungry, vicious, men and women whose greed is all-consuming--and whose power is deadly.--LibraryThing
