ADRIEN GOLD'S NEW BOOK

The Darker the Market, the Deadlier the Truth.

With time running out, the Secretary of the Treasury forms an unlikely alliance with a brilliant team of a rogue financier and a journalist helped by hackers, and spies.

"I love how Gold exposes the dark history of finance that spurred wars and manipulated governments for the benefit of a few. But not in a textbook fashion. The historical details are woven through the voices of ordinary, believable people. By the time I finished a chapter, I had grown so attached to the characters I hated to say goodbye to them. A perfect blend of history and fiction. Highly recommended."

Historical Statements

“The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. The banking powers are more despotic than a monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, more selfish than bureaucracy. They denounce as public enemies all who question their methods or throw light upon their crimes."

"Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most conspicuous and sacred responsibility, all talks of the sovereignty of Parliament and of democracy is idle and futile..."

“The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson.”

"No major institution in the U.S. has so poor a record of performance over so long a period, yet so high a public reputation."

"The real menace of our Republic is the invisible government, which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy legs over our cities, states and nation . . . The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes."

“A power has risen up in the government greater than the people themselves, consisting of many and various powerful interests, combined in one mass, and held together by the cohesive power of the vast surplus in banks.”
