Company Man - Softcover

"At long last someone has done for executives what John Grisham did for lawyers: create fictional ones sufficiently three-dimensional to care about...the book doesn't slow down for a second." "--Fortune"
"Compelling..."Company Man" confirms what "Paranoia" made clear: [Finder] has unusually keen instincts for back-stabbing in the business world...as much a novel about the chicanery of the business world as it is a mystery story...Finder weaves these prospects menacingly throughout the story." "--New York Times"
"Sharply created characters...makes the workplace as duplicitous a world as any in the Cold War. "Company Man" resonates with anyone who has seen corporate politics at its worst.""--Sun-Sentinel "(South Florida)
"Finder skillfully places his story of corporate intrigue (who is trying to sell the company, and why?) in counterpoint to the unraveling of a family's secrets (why is Nick's son Lucas so disturbed?), and the plot, which also features rogue cops and at least one homicide, accelerates to a headlong finish." "--The New Yorker"
"It's everything a thriller should be: suspenseful, entertaining--and, above all, thrilling."
"--""Chicago"" Sun-Times"
"Finder (who last mined corporate culture in 2004's "Paranoia") expertly keeps the pages turning as he ups the stakes chapter after chapter in Conover's professional and personal life. He is equally confident in portraying the small stuff involving family conflicts, marriages in turmoil and especially the telling details of corporate life...it more than achieves its main goal of entertaining the reader--as a good thriller is supposed to do.""--""Baltimore"" Sun"
"Once again, Finder has produced apage-turning corporate thriller with enough twists and turns for any reader.""--The ""Denver"" Post"
"Not only fast paced-excitement but also sympathetic characters with authentic back stories and realistic situations. Highly recommended." "--Library Journal" (starred review)
"A frightfully good suspense thriller." "--Booklist"
"Finder has become a master of the modern thriller. There are twists and deceptions packed in here...once again, Finder has managed to update the claustrophobic thriller into something that resonates with our times...Joseph Finder has secured his niche as a master of the contemporary corporate thriller, a smart plotter in touch with our new century's soft spots." "--The ""Boston"" Globe"
"Propulsive...should cement Finder's reputation as a reliable chronicler of the perils lurking in
e-mail and the executive suite.""--Entertainment Weekly"
"A solid, engrossing thriller...the novel's pacing is strong, with steady suspense...there are few thriller fans who won't stay up to finish this assured tale." "--Publishers Weekly"
"Finder expertly doles out the suspense and comes up with a climactic twist altogether more plausible and satisfying than the last-minute revelation in "Paranoia,.".a highly efficient thriller combining state-of-the-art corporate malfeasance with the old-fashioned kind." "--Kirkus Reviews"
"The business thriller is rejuvenated by Joseph Finder with "Company"" ""Man."" "That's because Finder puts the emphasis on sharply created characters instead of potentially eye-glazing business minutiae."--"Chicago"" Tribune"
"Doesn't disappoint...if there ever was a one-sitting book, this is it. Don't miss "CompanyMan"!"--Themysteryreader.com
"Finder is back with a new thriller that is almost as good as "Paranoia," one of my favorite books last year...the good guy/killer dichotomy is a fascinating study in an intense story about the good and evil in all of us, and Finder twists a couple of storylines and keeps those pages turning. Great read." "--Bookbitch"
"Hard to believe it's possible that Finder could top his last success with the corporate thriller "Paranoia" but that's exactly what he does with his latest. Not only can you find the requisite devious corporate moves, but even more enticing is the sincerity, heart, and sometimes just plain madness brought about by a truly inspired cast of characters...this must read comes highly recommended for its stunning suspense, intelligent writing, and gripping plot, along with a cast of characters that are so perfectly drawn they seem to fairly leap off the page...when you put all these ingredients together, you have one heck of a perfect read that shouldn't be missed."
