Book Reviews of Taking Stock
Book Review: Another Gem from C.J. West
Summary: 5 Stars
Taking Stock, West's second published novel was actually written first by the author though released after the outstanding "Sin And Vengeance". The author just has a knack for keeping you on the edge of your seat during the non-stop action and suspense. This book was a two-sitting book for me, and only because I started one night after 11:00 PM, so I needed to finish it up in the morning.
C.J. develops his characters brilliantly and makes them easily identifiable with and believable, unlike so many characters who seem to need a cape and cowl to do what they do in suspense novels.
I only hope he has another book out soon as I am eagerly waiting for more from this unsung author. Everyone I have leant a copy of either book to has been ecstatic in their reviews.
All I can say is buy it and hold on to your hat.
Summary of Taking Stock
Tiny magnetic dots locked deep in Boston's financial district hold the keys to $44 billion. The massive fortune is spread among seventy-five thousand customers and only the computers know exactly how the shares are divided at any given time. Millions are spent to keep the systems safe in their temperature controlled room and keep Internet-based hackers at bay. No one knows this better than the people assigned to safeguard this fortune. Erica Fletcher is one such guardian, buried by an insurmountable workload, precisely how she likes it. Beautiful, smart, tough, nothing can knock her off course and nothing penetrates her defenses. She's locked her emotions away and poured her life into her career. She's a superstar among her peers and a nightmare to any man who tries to control her. Erica's boss wants her out and their confrontation wakes Erica to a stark reality. She's traded her life for success and security, forever running from her mother's mistakes. Her roommate convinces her to slow down and just as her first real romance blooms, her life is thrown into chaos. Two hundred million has disappeared from the firm and the evidence all points to Erica. She fights for her life as she struggles to hold on to the new woman she's become.Auditing Books
