A science fiction novel by Susan Shwartz.Corporate climber CC Williams is sent to the asteroid Vesta-g to investigate possible insider trading, fraud or embezzlement.CC puts on all the appearances of being a perfect corporate drone. But having bootstrapped her way out out of the slums and into an upwardly mobile career, her debts mean she is one false move away from forced emigration, indentured servitude, organ harvesting or worse.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })While it lands very high on the Mohs Scale of Sci-Fi Hardness, Hostile Takeover has several unique twists to classic science fiction formulae. For instance, in approved Golden Age manner, the main protagonist is a hard-science type; however, instead of nuclear physics or mechanical engineering, she is a financial analyst.This work is troperiffic in the extreme. Gleeful shout outs abound to both classic and contemporary media.Not to be confused with a trilogy of the same name written by S.A. Swann. | |

Belligerent Sexual Tension | |
| Hostile Takeover (Shwartz) / int_75d6bf40 | comment |
Belligerent Sexual Tension: C'mon, Marc. Stop being such a Jerkass. You know you want to give CC "every cooperation." And the feeling is obviously mutual. | |

Ambition Is Evil | |
| Hostile Takeover (Shwartz) / int_9e1e14ea | comment |
Ambition Is Evil: Explored quite a bit with CC and John. John is a greedy scumbag with no moral compass, while CC is actually quite a romantic, with a desperate desire to secure financial security and safety for herself and future children. | |
