Publisher's Synopsis
An unsuspecting drug dealer becomes involved in a political nightmare in Michael C. Thompson's thrilling debut novel, United States vs. Mitch Rolls.
As the heir to his father's successful real estate investment and management company, Mitch Rolls is expected to follow a very specific career path.
But while finishing school, Mitch discovers that dealing marijuana among the upper echelons of society-including his attorney, stock brokers, and wealthy classmates-is a rather profitable business in and of itself.
Over the years, Mitch builds up an impressive clientele but is plagued by unusual tragedies that seem to follow him wherever he goes.
A result of actions taken by the government, politicians, and big businesses, these unfortunate incidents eventually color Mitch's world view-and lead him and two of his friends, Gladstone Burke and DJ Downey, toward a confrontation that will result in an explosive showdown during the 2012 Ohio primary election.
Little does Mitch know that his, Gladstone's, and DJ Downey's actions will spark an investigation and prosecution for murder and political corruption that will rock the political world...
