The Promoter

By Lee Christopher

A fast-moving novel that centers on Monica Woods, who at thirty puts her tragic experiences behind her. She was in a disastrous first marriage to an abusive alcoholic that ended in an accident taking the lives of her baby and husband. She then entered into a brief second marriage to a Vietnam veteran that left her a widow with a mentally challenged daughter. Reinventing herself, she enters the world of business as a legal secretary to a fatherlike Jewish man whose proverbs pose perplexing questions to Monica as the story unfolds.

Monica, beautiful and intelligent, is exactly the companion Robert Holton seeks to help him expand his business in the exciting world of commodities. An expert in debt securities and in managing other people's money, Robert is a complex character who performs easy money machinations throughout the story.

Two ambitious people with different values, Monica and Robert, fall in love and together make millions in the stock market. The novel's focal point arises when Monica discovers Robert's deceit to their clients and to her.

The setting for most of the novel is New Orleans with colorful backdrops in New York, the Bahamas, and Mexico.
