Moves were adrift to combine Europe into a single currency state to counter act the domination of the United States of America and the US Dollar. With the motivation of the European Union coming from France and Germany, two countries that had not been on good footing for many generations, and backed up by weak minnows looking to gain on the backs of the two strong contenders opportunities where rife and ready for the plucking.
The Free Trade Zones were set up to encourage tobacco product resellers in European countries to buy for local consumption and not to export out of the fledgling union. This would negate the payment of taxes for every border crossed from point of purchase to point of sale.
For every good move there are always those that want to take advantage of loop holes in the system for their own benefit and this is a fictitious story about how something potentially small, the smuggling of cigarettes, can escalate into something far more dangerous that can endanger and influence many more lives ... How about I let you read the story and decide for yourself.
I used tobacco as the string for my story as it is something that I know extremely well however tobacco could be replaced by any other commodity that is easily transported, has a high turnover and markup and the potential to enrich traffickers.
