Produktbeschreibung

Daniel has discovered who killed his parents. Although grateful, Daniel's grandmother wants no revenge and expects Daniel to seek clemency for her daughter's killers, thrusting Daniel into the awkward role of witness for the defense. At the same time, Daniel is anxious to show that his parents were not responsible for Luke Fisher's death which triggered the revenge killings.
Mark Freeman, CEO of Freeman Engineering the MaDNet prime contractor, also wants to know who killed Luke, a member of the "Freeman Family." However, instead of building on Daniel's recent success and momentum, Mark Freeman hires a professional detective and then asks for Daniel's cooperation in the investigation. Pulled in several directions at once, Daniel must rely on his instincts to address the trial, another cold case, and some dangerous adversaries. Seemingly way overmatched, Daniel receives help from an unexpected quarter under surprising circumstances.

Autorenporträt

By training and profession, I am an engineer; my years of engineering experience have taught me that "good intentions" do not determine results. Success in engineering is objective: your bridge will stand, your machine will function, and your computer program will run correctly, only if designed and built in strict adherence to physical laws and principles; emotions generally have little to do with engineering outcomes. Since the discipline of engineering, meeting goals through actions based on proven principles, is lacking in our daily lives, it is no surprise that it is missing from our public policy.
Having said all that, I am reminded of a personal ad posted in our school newspaper by a coed who described herself as "dynamic and attractive" and who wanted to meet a "passionate, active young man." The final words in the ad were, "no engineers." We are all well served by humility and a sense of humor.
