In this tense thriller, Christian Gillette is approached by a shadowy group representing vast wealth and vague motives. They're a politically conservative alliance interested in a partnership with Gillette's company, Everest Capital. Then he's contacted by a charismatic liberal politician named Jesse Wood, who is about to announce his candidacy for president; Wood and his advisors want Gillette to run for vice president. Skeptical of both offers, Gillette tries to discern who can be trusted. But he soon realizes a colleague has ties to one party...and ultimately, he can't trust anybody at all.Still breathing? Take another corporate thrill ride with CEO Christian Gillette.©2006 Stephen Frey (P)2006 BBC Audiobooks America Genre Fiction Political Suspense Thriller & Suspense Fiction

Critic reviews

"Holter Graham's use of a wide range of voices and emotions can't help but draw listeners in from the very first words. There's a sense of doom and foreboding, of expectation and terror as we try to distinguish the heroes from the villains, with the true motivations of all not revealed until the end." (AudioFile)

The story is too drawn out and way too hard to follow in my opinion. It was just not interesting enough. It got boring and I just couldn’t finish it.

Kept me guessing, and I like that! The narrator was excellent with a clear, easy to understand voice. The different voices he used worked well, and made sense. The story was intriguing and interesting, especially since now we have had an African American president.

Wanted it to keep going

I enjoyed listening to this story, though it has so many characters and took really long to connect them. I'm looking forward to the next book, the successor to see where it goes from here.

As for the narrator, he was good, but sometimes he didn't give proper distinction to the characters, so they sounded similar to other characters.
Overall, great story!

Entertaining
