Having sold the company and the appointment of the new CEO at VitalTech placed the deal between Vijay and Zoe in jeopardy. Will Vijay opt-out from the deal? Or will he have other options to push through the deal? Grab a copy of the book to find out.
The book portray an exceptional crime and investigative tale. The story contain brief political concepts as viewed by the characters. I noticed a few profane expressions, both borderline and non-borderline. There are no grammatical mistakes in the story, which is impressive. I also discovered a tiny formatting error. The only thing I didn't care for was the plot's overabundance of characters. It was a little stressful for me to try to load all of the details for all of the characters. However, this did not deter me from finishing the book. The lesson I took up from the narrative is that technology can be beneficial, but it can also be dangerous to many everyday choices.
Readers who appreciate reading intriguing stories with a variety of genres will enjoy this book. This is the book for you if you appreciate investigative and criminal fiction. As it contains sensitive episodes that will not impress minors, this book is not appropriate for them.
