In D.L. Johnson's Seduced, Rian Reston, a banker from a small Colorado town, loses everything after being defrauded and fired from his job. With little hope left, he accepts a job on a ranch and becomes acquainted with Reggie, his soon-to-be mentor. As it turns out, the bank that fired him is controlled by Scaratucci, a mobster who specializes in money laundering. When a power outage affects the country, it exposes many shortcomings in the financial system. Rian stumbles upon a financial conspiracy in which banks are falsifying their deposit practices, thus endangering the economy. As he probes into the situation further, he collides with Scaratucci’s hired assassins. With the support of his wife and a close friend, Rian starts a political rally to fix the damaged banking system. As his initiative grows, he desperately fights to end the mafia’s control of the banking system and create a better solution for account holders. Will he triumph in the end?
