The Usury Suspects (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780981047058)

Dr. Ivan Welland, in response to the economic crises in the U.S., decides to take on the challenge of curing the ills that have caused the problems. He leads his non-profit Foundation for Democracy Research into a study of the alphabet soup of regulatory agencies responsible for the economy. We learn about the functions and failings of the SEC, Fed, FDIC, IRS, BIS, OMB, and the network of complexities under which our economy barely survives. Along the way we discover a plot to defraud the U.S. Treasury of TARP funds intended to save a bank from insolvency. The reader is led into the center of a corruption scheme which, if successful, will be the largest known embezzlement in history. This is the sixth cautionary thriller by Aidan de Vries. It takes us where we need to go to understand the risks that threaten the economic pillars of our democratic system.
