Where Has All the Money Gone? - Herb Marlow - Bog

A techno thriller featuring a business man who says of himself: "I was variously called an efficiency expert, a quality control technician, a quality assurance expert, or a business associate. That is, I was called those things to my face. Behind my back there were other titles and names; many of which were profane."
"Where Has All the Money Gone" follows a few months in the life of Gene Madison as he takes on a task of turning Better Foods Corporation from red ink to black. There are those in the company that don't want him to examine things too closely, and they try to deter him, but Gene's a tough character - after all his hobby is riding saddle broncs in the rodeo, and that leads him to a budding romance with Eve Mathews, a pretty school teacher who is much impressed with Madison.
Then the Drug Cartel steps in with some serious people who will stop at nothing to have their way. In his usual forthright manner Gene takes them on, but his life is in danger. And the the joker in the deck is finally revealed...
