Very interesting concept. It makes you wonder if this could be happening under our noses with today's technology. There were twists in the book that kept you guessing at times. Great read!

I was intrigued by the description of this book. And I am pleasantly surprised. A very intelligently written book that is a joy to read. I can wholeheartedly recommend this author and have since ordered another one of Garber's books.

Terrific book suspenseful, and exciting from start to finish. An ordinary businessman, when suddenly, one day, everyone he knows is trying to kill him. He only has his wits and the training he received 20 years ago, to help him figure out why and how to stay alive, for awhile anyway.

Psychological thriller of the page turning kind! New York executive, David Elliot, arrives for work one morning only to discover that everybody he encounters is out for one thing - to kill him. He's trapped in a 50 story Park Avenue Office tower alone and armed gunmen are conducting a floor by floor search for him.

David's enemies expect him to be dead by lunchtime. They are wrong.
