A high octane thrill ride! - San Francisco Chronicle on Paranoia Joseph Finder`s New York Times bestseller Paranoia was hailed by critics as jet-propelled, the Page Turner of the Year, and the archetype of the thriller in its contemporary form. Now Finder returns with Company Man - a heart-stopping thriller about ambition, betrayal, and the price of secrets. Nick Conover is the CEO of a major corporation, a local boy made good, and once the most admired man in a company town. But that was before the layoffs. When a faceless stalker menaces his family, Nick, a single father of two since the recent death of his wife, finds that the gated community they live in is no protection at all. He decides to take action, a tragedy ensues - and immediately his life spirals out of control. At work, Nick begins to uncover a conspiracy against him, involving some of his closest colleagues. He doesn`t know who he can trust - including the brilliant, troubled new woman in his life. Meanwhile, his actions are being probed by a homicide detective named Audrey Rhimes, a relentless investigator with a strong sense of morality - and her own, very personal reason for pursuing Nick Conover.
With everything he cares about in the balance, Nick discovers strengths he never knew he had. His enemies don`t realize how hard he`ll fight to save his company. And nobody knows how far he`ll go to protect his family.
Mesmerizing and psychologically astute, Company Man is Joseph Finder`s most compelling and original novel yet.
