Bestselling author Deborah Moggach, who "captures mood through careful choice of detail and has a deft sense of the grotesque" (James McNamara, The New York Times Book Review) delivers an extremely powerful novel about the consequences of greed and deceit in her gripping page-turner Final Demand.Natalie is a girl who should be going somewhere. Although beautiful, bright, and ambitious, she's stuck in a dead-end job in the accounts department of a telecommunications company, living her life through wild weekends and yearning for something more. While processing the final notice payments on cus-tomer's accounts, Natalie devises a simple little scam that could change her life in a major way. And since it's only a minor crime--nobody's going to get hurt-- she doesn't hesitate to follow through her scheme.But when Natalie's selfish actions have tragic conse-quences, she learns there's no such thing as a victimless crime. A cautionary tale that "captures the soulless sign of the times" (Jerry Broton, New York Times bestselling author), Final Demand is a beautifully written, emotionally taut story about the battle between love, envy, and misguided aspirations, and our own frailty in the face of temptation.
