Fatal Acquisition

In his first novel James Cotera knocks it out of the park according to Jim Ganley, retired Chief Operating Officer of Fox Pan American Sports. James Cotera spins a tail of intrigue, suspense, sex, murder and complex plot of many twists and turns. It’s a novel you cannot put down.

This book is riveting from the moment you crack it open. I truly love good books but I’m pretty picky when it comes to a good read. It just so happened that a personally signed copy by the author landed on my desk, so I had to pick it up. The quality of the book cover, to the inside pages instantly spoke to me since I operate in marketing and branding. But then the story, and the raw attention-grabbing detail made this a 100% WINNER! Fatal Acquisition is a must-read and hopefully there will be a sequel!

Here is a rare thing in the world of corporate thrillers—an A-List page-turner written with an insider’s knowledge of deals gone bad, but one that also happens to have the soul of a literary family saga. Like some lethal offspring Joseph Finder’s The Company Man and Nelson DeMille’s The Gold Coast, Fatal Acquisition takes you into the boardrooms and bedrooms of the big business elite. Wicked, sexy and ingeniously plotted, this vengeful journey into the dark heart of the American dream will keep you turning the pages all the way through its shocking but perfect conclusion.

Fatal Acquisition is a refreshingly original thriller from new author James Cotera. Set in the indulgent world of CEO’s and corporate raiders, this tale of success, greed and murder will have readers of all backgrounds holding their breath from the first page until the last. This clearly marks the beginning of a sequence of novels and hopefully a major motion picture!

This was one of the easiest read books I have come across in many years. I could not put the book down and wound up reading it in 3 days. Enjoying the complexity of Business, Stocks, Acquisitions along with Friendship, Sex and Mystery kept me glued to the book until the end. Great, easy read.

The book draws you in quickly right in the first few chapters and then becomes a complete KO as you can’t put it down! Coming from the corporate world and running a successful multi-million dollar branding and digital marketing agency, I’m always on the go, and prefer most of my daily reading via audible books, but I’d have to admit this is one of the best hard cover books I’ve come across. 5+ stars.

I am an avid book reader. I read between 50-75 books per year. I was recently given a book to read by a friend of mind called Fatal Acquisition I thoroughly enjoyed the read! The story grabbed your attention and held on to it. It was a hard book to put down. It has a Wolf of Wall Street type of flair. I could definitely see Leonardo DiCaprio play the lead in this Movie.
