Tom Sanders is a manager for the Digicom Corporation, a computer company in Seattle, Washington. With his company about to merge, he’s expecting a promotion. Happily married with two young children, Tom had big hopes for a promotion to the top by his boss, Bob Garvin. But instead it goes to Meredith Johnson, Tom's ex-girlfriend. Tom gets upset about the promotion, until a personal meeting turns into a night seduction when Meredith decides to relive her sexual fantasy and pick up from where they left off. Tom refuses and shoves her away, and gets Meredith mad. Tom’s only choice is to sue Meredith for sexual harassment. But then everyone in the company thinks it was the other way around and his boss wants to transfer him to a different division, forcing him to lose everything he’s ever gained. As the story unfolds, Tom discovers that not only is the system rigged against him, but Meredith is going to destroy his career. He has only four days to prove his innocence, save his marriage, and his job.

I give this book a heart, because it was pretty interesting. It was about 494 pages long, but it was a quick read. I would recommend this book to my classmates. It had a good ending, and the book was overall eventful.
