Power Play is a clever, action packed read that's firing on all cylinders...
intelligent, intriguing and absolutely entertaining- a boardroom blockbuster that demands to be read in single sitting and leaves you breathless, yet wanting more.
When CEO, Peter Rawlings, suffers a fatal heart attack while golfing at Pebble Beach, Cheryl Tobin is named as his replacement.
In Hammond Aerospace's male dominated executive suite, this wrinkles more than a few oxford button downs.
Then a competitor's newly designed plane crashes in a ball of flames during an air show in Paris.
Which results in millions of dollars in new contracts, as customers scramble to get in line for the new Hammond jet.
Because of this unexpected development, VP, Michael Zorn is unable to attend the annual executive retreat.
On the day of their scheduled departure, his assistant, Jake Landry is summoned to attend the event in his place.
The lodge is located on an isolated Canadian lake, hidden deep in the vast British Colombian wilderness, where guests are treated to all the perks with none of the disturbances.
Miles from the nearest cell phone or laptop King Chinook Lodge was the ideal place to brain storm and bond.
Unfortunately, it was those very same characteristics that made it the perfect target for a high stakes kidnapping.
And as fate would have it, the assistant, that wasn't supposed to be there is the executives only hope for survival and the string that unravels a well planned ransom scheme.
The author has gone to great lengths to ensure the dialogue is as accurate as possible...
the result is a wholly engrossing, exciting story that's nearly impossible to put down! Modern issues, such as corporate kidnappings and glass ceilings, money laundering and sabotage are written with a depth and understanding that lend an unusual air of credibility to this novel.
King Chinook Lodge is an integral part of the story, both allowing the danger to present itself and propelling the situation to its climatic and unavoidable culmination.
Throughout the novel, fragments of the past are revealed, allowing the reader to become emotionally connected and invested in the story.
Disturbing and thought provoking "Power Play" is a top notch thriller that is immensely satisfying and wildly entertaining! We all hope there's a Jake Landry character on our bus or staying in our hotel...
or in the next novel! This was, hands down, one of the best books I have read (in any genre) and will certainly remain in my top 10 for a very long time.
Happy Reading!
