Cunning Proposals
Carole L. Piller
Cunning Proposals is a romance/detective story involving a plan initiated by the Governor encouraging community leaders to submit proposals in the hopes of utilizing appropriated funds earmarked for Chicago. As the story unfolds, certain community leaders and individuals develop creative ways to misuse these funds.
One of the main characters is a real estate tycoon who has ties to the Mafia. He opens an illegal casino and convinces his innocent employee to manage it, and she becomes caught up in this underground world. The casino operates for over a year and a half before the authorities discover unusual occurrences in its vicinity.
The female attorney from the State Attorney’s Office is a career-oriented woman and tries hard not to fall in love with the special investigator also assigned to the case. The characters’ lives intertwine, resulting in an entertaining story that involves crime, love, drama, and murder.
Hello Everyone,
Cunning Proposals is an adult fictional drama/detective story with a taste of romance, murder and mayhem. The story is realistic, which I believe you'll enjoy reading. The characters visit places like Ed Debevic's, Army & Lou's and Gladys' restaurants; the old Tigers Lounge on 79th Street and Flukies Lounge on Cottage Grove which many of you probably have never heard of. There are plenty of stories written about characters in New York City and Los Angeles, it is time more stories evolve from Chicago. I have been writing for several years but for the past three years I have focused my writing for publication.
Cunning Proposals is available through my publisher, PublishAmerica.com for the discounted price of $16.95 each, plus shipping which is $3.00 for the first copy and $.50 for each additional copy.
ISBN No. is 1-4137-6417-7.
Retail price is $19.95 and my book is also available through Amazon.com , Barnesandnoble.com , and Reading on Walden.com.
So far my book is stocked at Reading on Walden Bookstore which is located at 9913 S. Walden Parkway , Chicago, Il 60643 .
E-mail me your comments, I'll be glad to communicate with you.
Sincerely,
Carole L. Piller
