An up-and-coming executive at the computer firm DigiCom, Tom Sanders is a man whose corporate future is certain. But after a closed-door meeting with his new boss—a woman who is his former lover and has been promoted to the position he expected to have—Sanders finds himself caught in a nightmarish web of deceit in which he is branded the villain.
 
As Sanders scrambles to defend himself, he uncovers an electronic trail into the company’s secrets—and begins to grasp that a cynical and manipulative scheme has been devised to bring him down.

Ratings and reviews

The story starts off well and begins to build. It has the always current themes of workplace competition, sexual harrassment and styles of corporate management. Unfortunately, I thought I had downloaded the whole book and, id so, it left me hanging at what seemed to be the end of a chapter. If there is more to this book, I'd wish to continue reading because the author is very good at building a story, which is why I feel disappointed with the feeling that I've spent time on a teaser, when I thought I'd begun to read a full book, which is very disappointing,especially as it is the first book I've downloaded through Book Bub.

Facinating take on sexual harassment in corporate America. A little dated from technology perspective (published in 1994) but timeless as to issues of greed, ambition, corporate malfeasance and sexual issues in the workplace. Creighton is a great and versatile author. Thoroughly enjoyable!

A well woven story, realistic and captivating. All his works are and he left us far to soon.
