What a man will do to survive when money isn’t always enough to get everything he desires THE DESIRE CARD by Lee Matthew Goldberg @leemathewg #newrelease #vbt #blogtour #asmsg #puyb Share on X

Inside the Book

The Desire Card

Title: THE DESIRE CARD
Author: Lee Matthew Goldberg
Publisher: Fahrenheit Press
Pages: TBA
Genre: Crime/Suspense

BOOK BLURB:

Any wish fulfilled for the right price. That’s the promise the Desire Card gives to its elite clients. But if the Card doesn’t feel like they’ve been justly compensated, the “price” will be more menacing than the clients could ever imagine.

Harrison Stockton learns this lesson all too well. Harrison has lived an adult life of privilege and excess: a high-powered job on Wall Street along with a fondness for alcohol and pills, and a family he adores, yet has no time for. All of this comes crashing to a halt when he loses his executive job and discovers he has liver cirrhosis with mere months left to live.

After finding himself far down on the donor list, Harrison takes matters into his own hands. This decision sparks a gritty and gripping quest that takes him to the slums of Mumbai in search of a black market organ and forces him under the Desire Card’s thumb. When his moral descent threatens his wife and children, Harrison must decide whether to save himself at any cost, or do what’s right and put a stop to the Card.

THE DESIRE CARD is a taut international thriller that explores what a man will do to survive when money isn’t always enough to get everything he desires. It’s the first book in a series followed by PREY NO MORE that focuses on other people indebted to this sinister organization, where the actual price is the cost of one’s soul.

PRAISE:

“Careful what you wish for, especially from a nefarious shadow organization, in this gripping start to Lee Matthew Goldberg’s fast-paced, highly compelling, buzz worthy new series. If you love characters morally compromised, richly drawn, and constantly surprising, you’ll love THE DESIRE CARD. I burned through the first book and can’t wait to get my hands on PREY NO MORE to see where this endlessly exciting story takes me next! Loved it!” – Daniel Palmer, critically acclaimed suspense author

Book Review at StoreyBook Reviews

“I did wonder who was behind The Desire Card and wasn’t too surprised when that was revealed.  While I didn’t figure it out until near the end it made sense. Overall a good book that will keep you on the edge of your seat wondering what could possibly happen next.  There is so much more to this book that I didn’t touch on because I don’t want to give away too much of the story.  We give it 4 paws up.”

Book Review at That’s What She’s Reading

“While largely a tale of one man’s quest to determine what it is that he truly desires when life comes to a crash landing, this is certainly a fascinating exploration into the role of the highly unlikeable character! Harrison is repugnant, vile, and self-absorbed. But, the entire cast of characters is just as duplicitous and flawed that as awful as Harrison is, the actions and behaviors of those surrounding him are just as egregious, if not more so. Ultimately, the total disregard to humanity displayed by almost everyone makes you have some empathy for Harrison! The degrees of their unlikeability vary considerably, yet they all leave a bad taste in your mouth. Everyone is making horrible choices when it comes to the seven deadly vices, but gradually, Harrison’s descent stirs the guilt needed for him to reevaluate his life and outlook, striking a hopeful tone towards a whirlwind conclusion.” – That’s What She’s Reading
