FROM THE PUBLISHER
"Expertly crafted, ingenious and absorbing." The Philadelphia Inquirer. The #1 Bestseller by the author of "Jurassic Park." As he did in "Rising Sun," Crichton focuses on a topic as close as today's newspaper headlines: sexual harassment. Tom Sanders is an up-and-coming executive at the computer firm DigiCom. When his new boss turns out to be a woman who is both his former lover and a business rival, Sanders determines to be professional. But after a closed-door meeting, the woman accuses him of sexual harassment. It's her word against his, and suddenly Sanders finds himself caught in a nightmarish web of deceit in which he is branded as the villian. As he scrambles to save his career and his reputation, Sanders uncovers an electronic trail into DigiCom's secrets . . . and the cynical scheme devised to bring him down.
SYNOPSIS
A brutal struggle in the cutthroat computer industry; a shattering psychological game of cat and mouse; an accusation of sexual harassment that threatens to derail a brilliant career...this is the electrifying core of Michael Crichton's new novel, the first since Rising Sun.

Synopsis
Tom Sanders is disappointed that he didn't get the promotion at DigiCom. Rumor has it that he lost out because he was a white man. When the new hire turns out to be an old flame, the indignity is compounded. When Meredith begins making strong allegations against Sanders, we take a roller coaster ride with Michael Crichton as he examines sexual harassment from an uncommon, but not impossible, perspective.
