The Devil's Interest - Paperback

by Susan Kirgan (Author)

When small-town banker, Ellie Nettle, accepts a position at American Horizon Bank in Fort Worth, she thinks she's finally achieved her career dreams as a private banker. But success turns to nightmare when she meets William "Willy" Villarreal-a charismatic con man running a multi-million-dollar fraud scheme that targets retirees' life savings.

As Ellie uncovers the truth about Willy's criminal past and his sophisticated certificate of deposit scam, she faces an impossible choice: stay silent and protect her career and life, or expose a predator connected to drug cartels, corrupt officials, and violent enforcers.

It's a fiction, yet based on actual events, thriller that reveals how one woman's courage, as a whistleblower, helped bring down a massive fraud network-and nearly cost her everything.

Perfect for fans of suspenseful, financial thrillers and true crime, this tale of banking corruption in 1990s Texas will keep you riveted until the final page.
