Rich Coleman's son, Matt, has just passed the bar exams and is anxious to make his fortune. Unfortunately, his plans to be a personal injury attorney have been soured by tort reform. With the help of his new bride and a college professor, Matt devises a plan to expose the long-standing objective of financial institutions to enslave the American people with high-interest financing and credit cards. He hopes when people realize the banks and financial companies have exploited them and there is no way except bankruptcy, his business will begin to boom.
To promote this new venture Rich begins a series of TV infomercials which are quite successful and land him an appearance on a major network talk show. It isn't long before Rich starts to believe what he has been preaching, and this sincerity lands him more bankruptcy business than he can handle. Soon he realizes he has been called by God for a greater purpose--to expose the credit conspiracy that has become a cancer on the American people.
While Matt's bankruptcy clinics are thriving, several subprime lenders in Texas begin to suffer from escalating loan defaults. One of them, MidSouth Bank of Houston, is particularly hurt, and its chairman, Frank Hill, decides he must stop Rich by whatever means necessary. Love, greed, and revenge fuel this financial thriller about the evil spawned by the plastic gods we love and cherish.

Action aficionados will not be disappointed, and although the book is a work of fiction, its theme is tantalizing." Robert P. Goldman, Best Reviews
"... I started reading the book thinking it would be the same old story about greed and corruption. But it's not. Manchee takes it to another level. ... Is it fact or fiction?" Cindy Daniel, Author of the Death Warmed Over Series.
"Plastic Gods is ... interesting & important! ... It is a lively story for anyone struggling with thousands of dollars of debt; for anyone facing a lifetime of interest payments; for anyone living beyond their means & realizing what the great American Dream is costing them. It is also a dangerous book, so be warned, it has something subversive to say that will touch just about everyone with a bank account." Good stuff! Rebecca's Reads Reviews
...Manchee is a genius at taking a page from our daily lives and turning it into a high-speed thriller, with characters that we definitely want to see again, and a well-developed plotline that is right out of today's newspapers." Beverly Rowe, MyShelf.com Reviews
